Hi! I vote for Chromium, not Chrome. But Chromium and Chrome has a important problem: I can't localize to my language. Only the languages that they choose, can enter in Chromium/Chrome. You can read more here: http://acurti.es/8la Marked as "Won't fix" :( I think is contrary to the free software.
Chromium/Chrome isn't integrated with the system, with "special" menus, they not use the Guide of Usability :( Best regards.
