I already moved to Chrome full time a while back, Chrome on Linux is really really good and there are very few things I prefer using Firefox for anymore. Most of those are just plugins. With an SSD and Ubuntu 9.04 Chrome starts fast enough that by the time I move my mouse to where the address bar will appear its already there.
