Chrome works flawlessly! I've even used it without Chromevox. In fact, I prefer using it without Chromevox. If you can use Safari, you can definitely use Chrome. The only thing that may trip you up a little bit at first is the preferences window, as they don't actually make it into a standard preferences dialog. What they've done is to make it into its own web formatted html content area. So, what you basically have to the best I recall, you have to excuse me. I've not gone into the prefs window in a while, is a multi tabbed window and yes, you do still vo+space on the tabs across the top, but then you'll want to stop interacting with the window, and then reinteract so that the Voiceover buffer gets refreshed and reads the screen, as it doesn't exactly literally reload with another page, but instead it just dynamicly updates in realtime as you vo+space on those tabs across the top. And to tell you the truth, I don't even remember if they were tabs now that I second th ink about it. They may have just been links. For what it's worth though, it's not really as hard, nor as bad as I probably'm making it sound. Trust me, it's actually quite doable. If you'd like, I'd be happy to make a podcast recording on my podcast feed explaining the prefs window. Just let me know if you all think it's necessary.
Over all though, yes, Chrome works fantasticly. Chris.
