Blur #00008
June 27th, 2009I’ve been experimenting with Linux over the past month. Linux Mint to be precise. Just Quickly, it’s been five years since I’ve used Linux, which happens to correspond with graduating from college. So, I figured I would take my now not used desktop and do some exploring. I’m very happy with the experience so far, but that’s for another post.
What I wanted to mention was that even in its pre-release developer state, Google Chrome Linux is still the best internet browser I’ve fired up. Firefox is solid but feels a bit sluggish, and Opera’s page rendering is embarrassingly slow. I was starting to think it was my connection, or something with Linux…not true. Chrome friggin’ rips, just as you may have come to expect from it on other platforms. Being pre-release you run the risk of it being a bit buggy, but I haven’t had any issues to this point and I certainly wouldn’t let that stop you from giving it a try.
