Just installed it, posting from it now. It looks pretty interesting. No fluff and simple.

Google Chrome uses WebKit 525.13 (Safari 3.1) which is vulnerable to carpet-bombs.

If I were you, I wouldn't use it at all until they update the user-agent...especially anything that requires username and password.

On the plus side, look at these javascript speed tests!
