Has anyone downloaded this which is setting up in competition with Internet Explorer? What do you think of it?

There's a similar thread (with some answers to your question) in the 'Internet' subsection:

Yes I found it to be very slow too yet it advertises as 5 times the speed of IE. I wonder why that is, surely not sabotage?

Well you won't get my views because I'm still using Windows ME (with Firefox 2). Chrome and Firefox 3 don't run under my OS.

Even if I was using XP or Vista, I think that I'd be hesitant about using Chrome. See here:

Hi 'rov1200'........I downloaded 'chrome' on Tuesday.....it's great....I have been using IE7 and firefox3 and it's certainly faster than both of those. As yet I have not found a weakness in 'chrome'
