Google’s browser (Chrome) test drive

jack-sparrow

Get bored with fire­fox 3 or IE7 already? Then Google’s new browser, Chrome, is here for you to test it and crush all hopes of IE. Well in this entry, I will give you some of my opin­ions after I test drive this babe, and include screen­shot as well.

Alright! The first impres­sion is the browser is looks nice and a bit faster than Fire­fox, espe­cially when max­i­mize the browser, it bring you full screen-like on IE7. And flash is work­ing fine as well. But I feel retard when I scroll down the page (feel like using The­world browser in dif­fer­ent ver.).

Sur­prised, when I open-up Win­dows task man­ager for… you know, check­ing that’s whether Chrome using RAM more than FF or not. I found many of chrome.exe in sep­a­rate line. While I’m writ­ing this entry I’m using Chrome for test as well. And I guess it’s suck than sup­pose to be… Well, I can’t resize the pic and I can’t drag n’ drop the high­light words. F**k that up.

End the review…

——————

Aahamm, my con­clu­sion is Chrome is a good browser, but it’s still in beta so I won’t switch from Fire­fox to Chrome yet. But if you wanna test drive any­way? Just go on Google’s page, down­load it, and test it (no Mac/Linux ver yet).

Note: Jack Sparrow’s pic down’t relate any­thing to this entry.

Note#2: Why my task is look like Mac? Well, I cus­tomized my Vista to look like Mac

    The rea­son you saw many entries for Chrome.exe is that each tab is ran as a sep­a­rate thread. The idea is that some­thing in one tab goes bad instead of the whole browser crash­ing only that one tab crashes.

    Same here, I think I am still stuck with Fire­fox when­ever I go brows­ing the net..

    Well, if IE8 comes out with full release which is bet­ter than FF3, then maybe I will give it a try.. ^^

    @panther, lol.

    @The Geek, hmm…I think you’d prob­a­bly right, thanks. ^^

    @k, I want to but I need to keep some of my bud­gets for cus­tom desktop.

    @AC, Maybe to crush and crush all hope of IE, lol ^^”

    @gordon, hahaha, yeah I found it on inter­net. Never thought Jack would read that kind of thing. ^^

    @Fariz, if IE8 is bet­ter than FF3, then FF3.1 would bet­ter than IE8. lol!

    In my blog , I had a sim­i­lar con­clu­sion as you when look­ing at the num­ber of processes in task man­ager, how­ever, that’s not the case. Nanu and Wicked­clown cleared that up for me in their com­ments in my blog.

    Basi­cally, there is only one chrome process and the rest are just child processes which are added every­time you open a new tab or have plu­g­ins in a par­tic­u­lar site.

    The amount of mem­ory used by Chrome can­not be cal­cu­lated by adding the usage of all chrome processes because those Chrome processes share their mem­ory. So instead of lump­ing all together in one process like Fire­fox does, Chrome spreads it into mul­ti­ple processes.
