No way! The Chromium blueness works so well with the Kubuntu blueness!

Flash has been working for me since at-least August. Love it :D Sauce: http://jack.kingbrick.co.uk/madness/2009/08/chrome-on-linux I think Ubuntu should brand a release of Chromium for each distro release. If I was king it would be default, but I appreciate a lot of folks (yourself included) are addicted to Firefox. (I personally dislike using it casually, too slow on the poor old machines I use.)

All in all it's pretty good, but the thing I miss most is the lack of 'autoscrolling', which every borwser to date has! I know there are some issues with it in Chrome, but oh well, I won't use it until it gets autoscrolling :P

Been using Ubuntu 2 years. Thus, Firefox is very familiar. "Familiarity breeds recognition." Tried Chrome. Found it to be very confusing. Much ado about nothing. Removed it and came back home. I've never had Firefox crash, always been simple to operate. Why mess with success?
