Opera next will be really hard to beat!
Plus, your are giving up your privacy with Chrome.
Also, read what Littlebits from above post!

using it almost 1 week before used normal chrome. on my system, 64Bit version is way faster than the normal one, even faster as firefox on siteloading etc.

NOTE: This version is for the developers only and not meant for daily use by the general users.

This is why I'll wait, in the meantime with..
The Devil *whispering in my ear "...with Shadow Defender you can.. Just tryyy iitt!!!"

 

[ismethere]

yes, as Cat-4_Owners-2 said, the better way to test something, on Shadow Mode like Shadow Defender...more better
on VirtualBox..or Vmware...a wise...method..

im just loving the speed, thats why im using it atm. if i get some errors cuz its not a finished product i just install normal chrome again. not a big problem for me. but the speed worth it.

Just so you know, Chrome's Canary Build and Chrome Stable can run side by side at the very same time.

Because Dev builds are never stable, there is a reason why is is call Dev they are pre-betas or alpha builds (not ready for prime time).
There is no way I'm going to risk messing up a perfectly good Google Chrome installation to try a Dev build.

If there is a way to custom install it into a different location without messing with current version of Google Chrome then sure I wouldn't mind trying it. Might even install it inside of Sanboxie but that will not give me its true performance.



Which are never stable like Pale Moon or Cyberfox based on the final release code.

Enjoy!!

Firefox gave up on x64 even for Nightly:
Only Linux x64

This is not the first time Mozilla canceled x64-bit Firefox, I believe the main reason was the change of the code which cause a lot of problems for Cyberfox. The old code Firefox 28 and previous was much more stable and allowed more flexibility for developers.

Enjoy!!

Did you Google it.

Does anyone know what new instruction set(s) Chrome x64 uses? Will this set(s) be compatible with 2009 proccessors for example?

I have a 2008 Windows 7 (Originally Windows XP) laptop w/ Intel Pentium T inside and it just works fine

lucky you, can't test it, don't have a 64bit OS

A Virtual Machine might do it

Does creating a Virtual Machine really let you simulate having a 64 bit system? I ask because I'm still using my Virtual Box training wheels!

You can run a 64 bit virtual machine on a 32 bit host (operating system) but you'll need a 64 bit processor with hardware virtualization support. This is referring to your CPU being 64 bit but you having installed a 32 bit operating system which you are running the virtual machine on. You cannot run a 64 bit virtual machine on a 32 bit processor unfortunately.

That makes perfect sense. Thank you, Cowpipe! Although I've not considered upgrading the hardware of our "mature in years" Dell Tower beyond it's Pentium 4 with 1 GB RAM, now it appears quite attractive!!
