Sense is not common.
Hmm... there's actually a lot to the browser, it's just not obvious. I wish there was more control over what appears in the new tab window though. There's some websites I don't particually want shown there for anyone to see. I guess I could go incognito, but I can't be bothered. Oh, and make Chrome remember the last place you specified to save something during that session, please Google? Overall though, not bad.

Oh yeah, saved sessions is a must for me. I constantly have like a bajillion different blog posts open that I'm going through at any point in the day that I read whenever possible and work my way through. Also my comp gets hijacked by people at random intervals too...

Downloads just pop up in a bar underneath the tab. There's very little control over downloads, and the default setting is to not even ask you where to save downloads to. I guess I just like the highly streamlined way downloads are handled. No pop up windows or tabs. Not fun for intense downloading people though.
You can click for the downloads to pop up in a seperate tab and then there's all the same options firefox has including pause/resume

My sister has it installed. Used it a bit to grab some drivers and other things for her and it seemed pretty good. Lacks stuff I need in a browser, but it's still in beta, so yer. Looking good so far though.

It is still beta, so I wont be downloading it, saying that however, Gmail is still in beta isn't it?

I like the extra applications that FF has. I think the big issue is I think chrome will take FF's market share while IE users will continue to surf oblivious.

I also heard there was a problem with their T&C which I think has been rectified, but there is also a security threat with Chrome. Will have to do some more research.
