So now it seems Google is answering your calls, promising in this article on CNET a deadline for Mac and Linux support." I'd really like to not care about the name of the browser I'm using, but the mental cost of switching could be high for someone used to particular Firefox extensions, unless or until they can all be expected to work seamlessly with Chrome.

I've got enough browser options to choose from with WebKit, Gecko, Opera and IE options. I don't need a tie-in to Google by Google using WebKit.
