Yeah, Chrome is great! I was stuck on opera for years, then I found Chrome about 6 months ago. It does seem to be way faster. My GF won't go on FaceBook without it! There are but few rendering glitches here and there, but most everything works great.
Some people complain that there are no toolbars and other add-ons, but myself, I find that to be it's best feature. You don't get crap taking up half your screen and ram. It's fast, simple and clean. (*for anyone trying to maintain a clean and fast system, be sure to disable "GoogleUpdate" in your startup after installing...you can easily update manually by clicking the wrench and "about" )
Also look for their forthcoming Operating System... The "goog" has been busy!
