Google has released beta versions of its Chrome browser for Mac and Linux. Google makes clear that Chrome Brower is easy to install, and each extension runs in its own process to avoid crashing or significantly slowing down the browser.

Google first unveiled Chrome in September 2008 but it is only for Windows. Chrome for Mac and Linux were released in June, but they did not include Flash support and did not has any other required feature. Google takes great care to make Google Chrome a native application for Mac. Grabowski and Pinkerton said the Mac team was focused on delivering rock-solid depth in a few critical areas for the browser, rather than a breadth of feature that are rough around the edges.

For the Linux Rakowski said the team again focused on speed, stability, and security, but given that most engineers use Linux machines, Google wanted Chrome to be a high-performance browser that integrated well with the Linux ecosystem. Kegel and Martin warned that those who installed the less stable, dev channel version of Chrome for Linux should uninstall that version before downloading the beta version. Google has also made a beta version of extensions available for Chrome in Windows and Linux.
