Well... gotta tell ya.... it sucks!
Bad handling of bookmarks for one.
How is one suppose to control anything? I have: Tabs and BS bookmark menus that are hard to find anything in.. What else is there? Oh.. A BS 'options'and limited 'page' button...
Hmm....
Tab handling is cool... but over all, this brower is BS.
Also read that Google wants this to be all javascript.. dunno about that one.

Hmm... if you dont have the BS bookmark 'bar', you need to open a new tab, search for what you want and click?
History? Where is it?
Cookie control?
Java control?
Pop-up control (not just on/off)
Phishing (same as above)
Print? (oh.... right click...I do that anyways... ok)
At least tabs work they way they should...

No control over what very few 'features' it has or for any customizing. No way to reach a 'file' toolbar - or ANY tool bar beyond a crappy 'Bookmarks'. Bookmark handling and organization is waayyy off. History handling and search waayyy off. No ad control. Dont really care to use 'Office on the web' type features.
Is it fast? Sure, but only becuase it LACKS many, many features or control. Others might be 'wooed' by having something other than IE or Firefox, but they are big for a reason. Chrome is not it.
