Chrome is my main browser, but I do use FF 3.5 for Battlefield Heroes. The biggest obstacle for Chrome, in my opinion at least, is that most Americans don't even know what a browser is.

This should explain it well: youtube video of google asking people on the street "what is a browser?"

Pretty sad, really.

I'm still waiting on Chrome for OS X. I demoed it on my brother's PC and fell in love. I never knew one could lust over a web browser.

I'm waiting for it as well, but until it gets these plugins going like Ad Block, I can't see myself using it that much.

Why would Google, whose specialty is advertisements, ever promote or support Chrome's ad block functionality?

I dig Safari as well. I LOVE Top Sites. But the thing I can't figure out that's a deal breaker for me is, links always open in a new window instead of a new tab. I can't get this to work the way I want it to on either PC or Mac. It's frustrating enough for me to use another browser.
