It seems that Chrome almost replaced Firefox in Ubuntu! It also stands a good chance of making it into the next release.

I would have *much* preferred if it had replaced FF. Chrome, IMO, is a far superior browsing experience, and a joy to use -- plus, I'm very pleased with the aggressiveness of Google in optimizations and new features.

On my netbook, chrome had transformed the experience from being slow and confined to a quick minimalist browsing experience in Ubuntu. It makes the experience quite fun, rather than feeling like a compromised experience. I would like to see how it compares to the latest FF.
