Google Chrome

I am using it now. I’ll let you know if there are any serious issues I hear about/know about.

Rendering is not what I’m used to in Firefox, but I’m not surprised nor really bothered by it.

We’ll see how it goes. For work I have to keep using IE 6 anyway, so that’s not going anywhere for a while.

But I’m not so secretly very pleased to see this development. Seems to work OK with SharePoint 2003. :) We’ll see how it goes.

It only works for Vista and XP right now. But the rendering engine is the same as or similar to Safari’s.
