It just me or does the GUI look like a direct rip of Chrome? And I like how they assume I want my tabs at the top when they've been on the bottom for years. Can't say how the speed is, haven't used it much yet.

EDIT: Added alternative download link.

Chrome is fast no doubt. But... as you said the add-ons/extensions are few and far between. Google also claims to use less RAM but that wasn't the case when I tried it last (build 10.xx).

I will say this it is smoking fast, If google wants more peeps to use chrome, then they need to make it more robust like FF is. I love the new look of FF4 (been beta testing for a few months now) it keeps everything nice and tidy and simple.
