It's fast and quite slick, but the big problem for most people will probably be it doesn't support plugins, such as an AD BLOCKER. There's other bugs/glitches but they are mostly small fry from what I saw so far.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Downloaded setup, started the install today, left it running circa 9:00, nothing happening at all apart from "connecting to the internet" whatever that means. Not impressed.Originally posted by dinker View PostJust installed it, seems pretty slick.

Yes, but Chrome can't connect, something about firewall / proxy (ho hum). As I am at client site I probably won't change these. I'll try again when home tonight.Originally posted by ratewhore View PostAre you connected to the internet?

Downloaded and installed it in less than 5 mins late last night, odds are their server is a bit busy.
It seems ok for a Beta so far.Comment

Well, it`s on the Google home page so a lot of people will try it. Gave me something to play around with for a couple of hours rather than reading the Daily Mail and getting angry.Originally posted by Flubster View PostWell, you've installed it...you tell us.
