is google chrome as good as it is advertised?

[Max]

Google chrome is:

- Fast to load up
- Fast to load web pages
- Light weight (requires a low amount of computer resources)
- Flexible - you can get extensions and themes to customise your experience
- HTML5 compliant (all the newest website features will work)

Compared to IE, chrome fully supports all features of HTML5 and CSS3 meaning most websites will display properly and all features will work.

The only problem is that sometimes for some users gmail and hotmail freeze at the login page. I don't know why it does this, it happens to some people and not to others so you should try it and hopefully it wont happen to you. However it will probably be patched in the near future.

I hope that helps
