A Mixed Review For Google Chrome On Linux

Posted by timothy on from the but-on-the-5th-hand dept.

omlx contributes this link to LinuxCrunch's short review of Google Chrome on Linux, writing: "The summary of it is that although Google Chrome is in a beta stage, it is fast, stable, and has a simple, clean, and effective GUI design. On other side, Google Chrome has a small number of extensions, doesn't support RSS, lacks integration with KDE, and doesn't support complex scripts very well. Personally, I didn't succeed in using Flash Player on Google Chrome beta 1 (I am using OpenSUSE 11.2) and I wonder how the quality of Google Chrome OS will be, especially if it's based on Linux and Google Chrome."

    In Ubuntu works great for example and the incompatibility with KDE is kinda a good thing.

    But you could even try to optimize it. Convert it to byte or machine in run time, or something.

    If you think it's all so damn straightforward and easy, why don't you submit a patch?
    Oh, but you don't write code? You don't wish to spend your own time on it? You're just too bloody lazy?

    Sheesh...
