Having about 50tabs in a browser just seems to eat memory. Seems to have a problem unloading it once finished.
Trying Google chrome for a day? I uninstalled it after about 30 minutes.

I happen to like Chrome. Is there anyone who can tell me the disadvantages/the advantages of another web browser?

The layout just wasn't for me, I didn't use it long enough to experience any problems.

Well, Chrome never managed to install properly in my Vista. I did get it working in XP, but it was really, really buggy when I tried to use it to post on WP. Plus, it just isn't customizable like Firefox is- I use several of the Firefox add-ons and really like that capability.

For me, as a general browser it was just "meh". However, I'm keeping it if I need to check something online really quick (movie times, directions, etc.).
