It is nice, but the lack of features makes it hard to use. With Mozilla Firefox you have all of the extensions in place to block ads, unwanted scripts, control web site styles, get weather updates, etc, etc. Chrome is SUPER basic.

Must be a security policy on my company's domain. I have the same workstation setup on my home PC, and have no issues with Chrome. Thanks for the tip! Matt B. -- I prefer "Snappy the Fail Folder" to "Sad Tab". I’m glad it is working for so many people out of the gate. :)
