I love Google Chrome. So much so that I even use the nightly builds on my MacBook Pro. On my Windows machine, it’s Google Chrome 4.0 beta all the way. It’s extremely fast and efficient. But it’s getting faster. The latest build, Chrome 4.0.223.16 brings a 30% speed boost compared to previous versions.
