What are the pros and cons of Google Crome?

I have internet explorer and use firefox for backup sometimes when explorer isn't running right. I just recently heard of Google Crome and I'm wondering, what are the pros and cons of this program? Is it better or worse then explorer and firefox, and why?|||Early Opinions on Google Chrome


So far, my experience using Chrome has been overwhelmingly positive. This browser looks very promising for the near future. I like this browser so much that I might have it as my default -- dethroning FF after many years. Yes, it could potentially be good enough to do that.








Pros:





-- Opens MUCH faster than Firefox. Rivals IE6 and Opera in that department;


-- The tab system implemented is absolutely brilliant;


-- JavaScript speed is a lightning bolt compared to the other browsers;


-- Plenty of Features in a simple layout;


-- Most page viewing space of any browser I've tried;


-- Comment boxes in websites, like this one I'm typing in, can be resized (it's the only browser that I know of that does that);


-- More polished than most alternatives to the Big 4 (IE, Firefox, Opera, Safari);


-- Each Tab has its own processor thread, so when a tab crashes, it doesn't take the browser with it;


-- Very fast page loading (rivals Opera);


-- Very simple user interface;


-- Incognito Mode (leaves no trace on computer of browsing history when enabled);


-- 75/100 on the Acid3 Test: Firefox 3.0.1 gets 56/100 (pretty good for a Beta browser);


-- Open Source








Cons:





-- Still in Beta; could be more polished;


-- Some sites won't render correctly (probably because it's new and it's Beta);


-- Some pages with multiple Flash animations render slower than Firefox or Opera;


-- Pop-ups are visible, just at the bottom of the browser tab;


-- No AdblockPlus for Chrome... yet.|||If just going by a browser I would say it almost the same. I will admit that it is fast, but I don't like it because it doesn't support add on's (a prime example being the google toolbar).





I have it installed with Firefox %26amp; IE %26amp; will say that it works really nice for the facebook games that seem to run really slow in IE|||It's a really fast and very standards compliant and modern browser, but it doesn't hve the same amount of extensions, so it may not do the additional things.|||Chrome is the best browser out there and the only time I could not use Chrome was when the website I was working on did not support Chrome. It is faster and more efficient in the resources it uses.
