So just a few hours ago, I made the switch over to Google Chrome...

I must say, it's pretty good. I just wish it had an add-ons interface but then again, it's not Firefox.

Also I've been using Google Desktop, and if you use something other than Vista, or just don't like Vista's sidebar but still like sidebars, get Google Desktop, it's much better than Yahoo Widgets.

My twitter widget hasn't failed me yet, and the search box is much better than Windows' built-in search.

I still have Firefox installed, cause it's always good to have a widely supported browser.
(I have a total of four, IE for the occasional website, Firefox for sites that won't work in Chrome, Chrome for everyday stuff now, and Safari since Apple forced it on me.

One thing I have noticed is Chrome doesn't handle text boxes nearly as well as Firefox, but it is a bit faster IMO.

It may just seem faster cause you need to reset IE or Firefox?

I downloaded something from Google that they said was theirs, but it installed opera.

Well, it seems marginally faster.

But what I have is most definitely Chrome, I think it may be partially based on Firefox though.
