There are some nice variations to Chrome, but the speed is one of my favorite factors so far. It definitely SMOKES compared to IE.

But can you imagine what this browser means for just a normal non-tech person? don't forget that there are a lot new functions you probably don't know yet that they are there. http://google.client.shareholder.com/Visitors/event/build2/MediaPresentation.cfm?MediaID=33101&Player=1# If you look at this presentation from Google you will see that it has some very nice functions other browsers don't have. So after working with it for a day I think I will be using firefox 3 for 45% Chrome for 45% and Opera for 10%. Before Chrome it was arround 80% Firefox and 20% Opera.

(Comment above on Beta - Google have endless betas of all their products so it just doesn't count the same) I downloaded it as soon as I could and have tried to review all the functionality - it certainly has more than the basics but there are quite a few things I would consider essential missing. BTW If you are interested in a fairly full set of screenshots and some notes and opinion to go with them have a quick look at ProReviewer.com Barry Cleave Google Chrome seems very interesting but has a long way to go to pass Firefox in terms of overall use and functionality.

It offers a good out of the box experience but lacks features and extendability. Amos that’s the main point that I’m missing as well.

However, I do think I'd recommend it to a not-particularly-technical person as a better simple alternative to IE6.
