Chrome really is a nice browser, but I've been wondering lately whether it will ever come out of Beta. I’m using the development builds as well, and haven’t had any troubles with them.

They say they're less reliable, but so far it's been stable for me. The best part is it fixed the scrolling issue where my touchpad scroll would jump it at increments of a dozen lines at a time! Also, seems to reduce problems w/ YouTube and other flash media. This is very simple to do, you just download a small "channel chooser" program, and Chrome will update itself to the latest :) http://dev.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel I'm on v0.3.154.3 Also, hey, just discovered the simple solution to a tiny thing that would annoy me in browsers. The URL bar displays your current URL, but what if you start typing in it, then change your mind and stay on the current page? I thought you either had to reload the page, or were stuck w/ an inaccurate URL showing. Well, I recently (finally) discovered you can restore the URL in any browser by focusing in the URL bar and hitting [escape]. Wuhu! That was EZ. Still lovin Chrome. C'mon, make the switch, less UI distraction/waste of screen estate, and lightning freakin fast. My tip is to switch to the Dev Channel latest releases.
