Chrome on Ubuntu



Google Chrome is my favorite browser on Windows due to its speed and simplicity. Still Google has not released a stable build for Linux and Mac. But recently it released Unstable versions for Linux and Mac through dev channel. It was easy to install on Ubuntu because there is a .deb version.
Google advices not to download it.
But, really, when has a simple warning stopped you from downloading an incomplete alpha?
You can download it from here .
Still Linux version doesn't support flash or Unicode,and didn't work the task manager also.
Here is the list of the issues with the browser.

Just installed. Missed it sooooooo much in Ubuntu!
I downloaded this sometime back but the deb file seemed to have problems at the time.
Thanks!
