    I can't wait for Chrome 3.

    Google has really made a great browser. It's simple, stable, and fast as hell.

    Did they fix the problem where it would only refresh the page if you hit the back button? (needing successive back clicks to actually go back a page).

    I have been using Chrome as a primary browser but I have 2 problems with it

    The new tab sites are based on history and I can not change them

    And when you close the last tab it closes the browser

    I used chrome for a bit but then for absolutely no reason it would leave about a centimeter of space on the right side and bottom of the web browser (It wouldn
    't fit the whole screen)and nothing i did would make it go away (Even reinstalling)
