Anyone here in the DR use this browser? Any pros and cons (speed, connection, etc.) that may help me in deciding if it is better then Internet Explorer (Windows 7).

Thanks for any help..

It is a lot faster than IE...I really couldn't believe the difference.
I have run it on both Vista and W7...

Also I'm running the Beta version on Firefox8 and it seems to be as fast as Chrome..both of these blow IE away in my opinion....

I'm using the version for Mac while watching TV on Hulu or Netflix. Works much better than Firefox or Safari.

It is very fast, but some pages will not load right. I have not tried it for awhile, so maybe it is better now.

For me this is the best browser out there now. It is a super fast clone of firefox, and works flawlessly.

Chrome is my favorite browser by far. It stills have some compatibility issues with some company pages created with IE6 code but other than that is flawless and extremely fast.

It is superfast

can just recommend it, especially here where the connection is not that fast. I only use IE for my Internet bank which for some reason does not work with Chrome.

IE is a turtle with 3 legs that has a bad day, firefox is a horse, and chrome is a cheetah on Red Bull.
