Re: Google Chrome (BETA) for Windows
I personally really like Google's Chrome. I really like how it looks, there's not a bunch of garbage at the top. It's all clean. I also like how the address bar serves as the Google search bar. As for the security problems and adblock, it is still in beta, so by the time the full version is released, I imagine it will all be spiffy. The home page is really nice too, with it showing your most visited pages. It's a quick way to get to the pages you look at every day (such as 1337.com). It will definitely be my browser of choice. I highly recommend it, anyway. But hey, to each his own.

Re: Google Chrome (BETA) for Windows
Here's some more stuff about Chrome. Apparently they're "working with" Mozilla and Firefox 3.1 will have a new javascript engine, I suppose will be the same as the quick one in Chrome.
They seem to say it uses Webkit, which I understand to be the engine for browsing in Mac OS. It's open source of course. Chrome sets up a new process and Webkit instance for each tab within the browser making it more reliable and robust. It makes sense to let the OS do all the process and memory management so Chrome just delegates the lot. Basically: Less is more.
