After just 100 days, Google has lifted the veil of betaness off its web browser, Chrome, by releasing version 1.0. When Chrome made its first public appearance earlier this year, it was met with positive reveiws due to its JavaScript performance, as well as its robust multithreaded model. Now that the beta label has been ripped off Chrome, Google can't hide itself anymore: Chrome will now have to take Firefox and Internet Explorer head-on.

I think it might actually be broken on the latest wine builds. The native version is coming along, even if not as fast as a lot of us would like. If you check out the current source, it's actually possible to build a barebones native client. The rendering's a bit off, no tabs or configuration, and the few controls are just a very basic gtk. Still, it's nice to see concrete progress.
