I have to use a MBP at work (first gen Intel) - Chrome is FAR faster than Safari (unsurprisingly) or Firefox (which 'feels' bloated on OSX). Chrome just feels right for OSX, I'm really glad they finally pushed out a stableish beta. (Has anyone else noticed this OSX Chrome bug: click on a download link from a site like sourceforge, wait for the modal dialog prompt to display, then either click on the link again or just continue surfing in a new window. After a few seconds Chrome freezes... Download thread tieing up the other threads?) Still, Chrome > * on OSX so far. It renders faster, loads faster and has some nice little UI finishes like tabs which slide in and out of existence, cross-window drag and drop tabs, that unified search/address bar which quickly grew on me... - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
