I use Google Chrome for PC the only downside is you can't stream Netflix with it yet.

Cool Re: Google Chrome for MAC

Blanders: Install Microsoft Silverlight

I really like Chrome, I'm digging the Chrome OS for netbooks.

In what way?

Speed is pretty close, I'd give chrome the slight edge. I still think that Firefox is more user friendly out of the box - chrome on either OS takes a little getting used to.
