Looking At Google's Flashified Chrome

An anonymous reader writes "Google quietly released a new beta version of its Chrome browser, which not only blows its rivals out of the water as far as performance is concerned, but comes with half a dozen new features, including direct integration of Adobe Flash. First benchmarks show that the new beta is about 10% faster than the previous beta in the SunSpider and V8 benchmark, and about 30% faster than Chrome 4, which remains the fastest JavaScript browser available today."

    Opera has a lot going for it in the speed department. But part of that is because you're basically using an Opera proxy. Everything you do on the internet gets routed through them.

    For all the "privacy" concerns about Chrome having auto-suggest for search, Opera has some very legitimate privacy concerns.

    Which part of the word 'and' is confusing you?

    FYI: The word 'and' is monosyllabic and therefore consists of only one 'part'. If you presume that this word is confusing the GP then maybe you could have taken the next intuitive step and insinuated that it is the whole word that is causing issues and not any 'part' of it. Unfortunately by not making this leap you are proving yourself to be a bit of a forum noob.
