Alternately, go up to the 'wrench icon,' select Options, and in Basic Options, there is a spot to click to have a Home Button. It appears right between refresh and bookmarks.

Um, yes, there is a Java plugin. From the Google Chrome help site:

"Google Chrome requires Java version 6, update 10. Please note that this is currently a beta version and may be more unstable than some previous version of Java. To download this beta version of Java, visit http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/ea.jsp"

I installed it and verified OK on a few java enabled sites.

When I installed Chrome, it said it took all of my settings and bookmarks from Firefox. But when I went to CSPAN to watch the Republican Convention, it wouldn't play realplayer content. When I went back to Firefox, it played realplayer content just fine.

Nevertheless, I think I'll be using Chrome more than any other browser for awhile, with Firefox in second place.

After about half a day of use, this is the first problem I've had with chrome, but my computer really isn't that great, so I forgive chrome. I have noticed chrome becomes unresponsive at times, but overall, everything runs a lot faster than Firefox 3

I'd love to see a new, ultra-fast, open-source javascript implementation! That's gonna be good for everyone. Hope to see the V8 JS VM showing up in a webkit-based tablet browser near me...

Re: Google Browser: Chrome
 

Wow, this Chrome is really amazingly fast and responsive. But it seems to trade memory for speed. It looks like a memory hog to me.
But since this is a beta, I'm sure the situation will improve.

Hum ... fast ... but it s need an adblock plugin :)

EDIT : and better gmail 2 plugin :)

Re: Google Browser: Chrome
 

Sigh. I want to try this but I'm always using Linux and I don't want to boot into my XP install just to try this out. I await the Linux version :)

Re: Google Browser: Chrome
 

Got to agree, lots of promises here. For an adblock replacement, I installed privoxy and it's working great.
qwerty12, I run linux full time but keep an xp sp3 vm running all the time under vmware server, rock solid and great performance.
Really hoping bits of it start falling over ff/microb soon.
