More often than not Mac users are last in line for cool new mass appeal software which is a major bummer. In particular Google Chrome has been out for Windows for quite some time now and I myself have fallen in love. So much so that I hate the world wide wait when I have to revert back to Firefox on my MacBook Pro. But alas, my wait is over. Google Chrome for Mac is out (though still in beta) but it’s stable and fast.
We’ve been working hard to deliver a first-class browser for the Mac — it took longer than we expected, but we hope the wait was worth it! We wanted Google Chrome to feel at home on the Mac, so we’ve focused on uniting our clean, simple design with subtle animations and effects to create a snappy and satisfying browsing experience on OS X. As you might expect, the speed of Google Chrome for Mac is something we’re very proud of. If you have a Mac, try installing the beta and see how fast it launches — there’s hardly even time for the icon in the dock to bounce!
For more details on this beta release of Google Chrome for Mac, read on in the Google Mac blog or watch this video from one of our engineers, Mike Pinkerton:

Yay! I was just complaining yesterday because I’ve been having an increasing number of problems with Firefox, on both PC and Mac. I have high hopes for Chrome.
How is web compatibility with Chrome? Do you get a lot of sites that give you the “we do not support this browser” message?
The only one I use, and I make my living on the internet, is constant contact. Most others work just fine. Seriously it’s so much faster that any hiccup I might have just ignored. Firefox is slow in comparison.
