Page rendering may not be much quicker in Chrome, but the launch speed is a huge reason for me to keep using it (like half a second...maybe).
There are still some (personal) issues:
- Hot keys don't work here on itT.
[strike] - Facebook doesn't quite work (try deleting an FB mail).[/stricke] It works now!
- The WYSIWIG controls don't work (or even show up) in my webmail app.
- Not haveing a "Stop" button is a little whacky.
But, that's about it... And, for the EULA? I knew Google would respond as they have.

I'm worried it could kill Firefox. I'm not so worried about damage to IE.

I don't think it can kill Firefox. Especially after Google introduces the ads and the sneaky stat sending to them...

We'll see, time will tell. For now FF3.1 and Chrome are on par and FF3.1 has much to be improved (their JIT is yet incomplete AFAIR). FF startup time probably won't be changed much in the future and i can see that this is a major drawback for many.

indeed, the launch speed is whats impressing me most here, and its also whats been aggravating me most about firefox, with the end result that i have made it a habit of just leaving the firefox window open when not using it.
Going there will not destroy anything, it'll just crash chrome. It seems that any URL with :% (at the end..?) will crash Chrome.
Oh, and to see Google's sense of humor, go to about:internets
