Newest version exploitable on that list is stated as 0.2.149.29

The newest version of Chrome is 0.2.149.30. I would love to know how many on that list still exist.

Default Re: Google Chrome ... A browser to compete with FF and IE ...

The other day I noticed that Chrome lacks support for the CSS text-shadow property which is a bit odd as WebKit has had that for ages. I've not checked with Safari on Windows though, so perhaps its a WebKit on Windows issue. Just thought that was a bit strange.

I've replaced FF with Chrome as my default browser when I'm on Windows now, it just feels so much nicer. Also far better than Safari on Windows too.

Safari on Windows is godawful! While I love Safari on Mac OS X, and loved Safari when it first came out for Windows, Chrome is WebKit for Windows in the way it was intended, Safari just feels out of place. That being said, I still prefer Safari for Windows over FireFox.

So Chrome > SafariWin > Firefox >= Opera > Internet Explorer then
