Test-driving Chrome for Ubuntu 

,----[ Quote ]
| Overall, I’m impressed with Chrome so far.  Its tiny resource footprint is 
| likely to score big points with Linux geeks who like their machines to run as 
| efficiently as possible, and with users seeking a more responsive browser 
| than the mainstream offerings.  The current lack of integration into Gnome 
| and the inability to change search engines (not to mention most other 
| preferences) is discouraging, but we should spare final judgement on these 
| issues until Chrome’s Linux port becomes stable.

Google Chrome on Linux First Impressions and Screenshots

,----[ Quote ]
| So how unstable and incomplete is this developer version of Chrome? --At
| first, I didn't really notice its instability since it didn't crash on me.
| But upon checking my system stats, I found out that it is still
| (understandably) resource hungry as it is not efficient in utilizing RAM and
| CPU.

Chrome on Linux: Rough, fast & promising

,----[ Quote ]
| I'd been waiting for Chrome on Linux since Chrome first showed up. Chrome, if
| you haven't tried it, is the speed-demon of Web browsers. I love it. But,
| until now, there really wasn't a version that would run natively on Linux.
| Starting last night, June 4th, Google released developer's versions of Chrome
| for Macs and Linux. They're rough, really rough, but they're also really
| fast. Here's what I found in my first hours of working with Chrome on Linux.

Get your Google Chrome on in Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| It is exciting to see such progress. I realize a lot of Linux users out there
| aren’t the biggest fans of Google. Those fans should at least give Chrome a
| try so they can see just what they will be missing. I have used Chrome on
| both Windows and Linux now and I can, without a doubt, the Linux version will
| blow away the Windows version. Of course from what I have seen the Linux
| version already is running better than the Windows version I used and I’m not
| supposed to be using the Linux version (It will probably install Windows on
| my machine while I am not looking.)

| At present Chrome only supports Ubuntu 8.04 or Debian 5 and later. Its
| performance on Linux is decent. It loads the pages fast and starts almost
| instantly.
