    Yes but my Google Chrome freezes a lot when running in Windows 7 on my laptop. I'm trying to figure out why. Maybe a reinstall of Chrome is in the need.

    Google Chrome does freeze randomly on my Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit as well, especially the 1st run after a reboot.
    Firefox used to randomly access my CPU and RAM usage and caused instability in Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit. However, it's fixed now by Mozilla themselves or I think Windows Updates.
    I switch to Windows 7, I don't use Google Chrome because it is harder to use for me and lacks of some features that I usually use.
    I am on Firefox again LOL. IE? Forget it. Used to be fan of IE long ago.
    I will say Firefox = Good features and arrangement(UI) and fully customizable currently and very fast/light system
    IE = Confusing and too much features(lousy UI), slower than Firefox, the screen reading size smaller than Firefox.
    GChrome= Standard feature and customizable, big screen reading size compared to Firefox currently(3.5.3) but have some inconvenient UIs(still OK).

    works fine for me, no freezes ever, though some older version did have this thing where Chrome would crash for me if I used close all tabs to the right (Probably not W7 specific though).
