I've been using Chrome since it was released. While it does have trouble rendering a few sites, they are few and far between. I've never experienced a tab issue. I've never experienced a slow down. I open it first in the morning and close it last at night (if I close it at all). Firefox, on the other hand, I have to close several times throughout the day to free up the memory it uses (I used to think Outlook was a memory hog, but Firefox blows it right out of the water). If I don't, Firefox will usually crash (which takes care of freeing up the memory for me and takes all of the tabs with it). My only complaint about Chrome right now is that the Firebug extension isn't as good as the Firefox one. Yet. _______________________________________________ New York PHP SIG: Joomla!
