    download the plugin thing it offers in the error box...

    then all flash works. Including all 20 or so of the flash games I have played on it so far, AND the flashchat.

    i did but it becomes unresponsive when using flashchat and games, sometimes crashing.

    and i've talked to another person who's had this problem.

    I'm not having that problem. It's gotta be something on your end. Try reinstalling Chrome and/or plugin.

    The only real advantage Chrome has over FF is its speed, and the next version of FF is said to be 30% faster than Chrome. I'm going to alternate between the two until release, and then I'll go back to FF.

    Another advantage is that it isn't Firefox, but that's personal opinion.

    Also, supporting Chrome is supporting the NEW defiant attempt at breaking up the Internet Explorer domination!

    Chrome may be faster than FF/Opera/IE but I wouldn't say it is saver at the moment. Which version is it currently? 0.2.something?
    I wouldn't use it before the final product is released - if I would use it after all, I still dislike all the data collecting stuff (even if you can turn it off).
