Chrome 15 Released to Stable Channel
by Andrew Cunningham on October 25, 2011 2:00 PM ESTSix weeks after the release of Chrome 14, Google today released Chrome 15.0.874.102 to the stable channel - current Chrome users should be getting it now or soon, and curious fans of other browsers can pick it up from Google.
Chrome 15's most obvious new feature is a redesigned New Tab page, pictured above, which lets you toggle between apps and frequently visited sites and also includes a menu in the bottom-right corner for easily bringing up recently visited sites. There are also quite a few bug fixes, which you can check out in detail on the Chrome Releases blog.
Chrome, as usual, is available for Windows XP and newer, OS X 10.5 (Intel only) and newer, and many flavors of Linux.

"I guess I'm just whining for whining sake"Yes. Also, Chrome is free, so whining that a free program somehow doesn't match up to your (pointless) expectations is a bit too much to stomach IMO.
Luxury problem much, wouldn't you say?
What I'd like to see from Chrome is support for left/right swipe on the apple magic mouse, it'd be much more convenient to have browse forwards/back ready at my fingertips; also I could dump the terrible resource and performance hog that is safari if chrome just started supporting this one simple feature... :P

hey, Opera has mouse-swype... left is back, right is forward. it is called "mouse gestures" and if you clik a link and swype down, for example, it will open the link in a new window. click anywhere and swype down then left, it minimizes the current tab. down then right, closes the tab. up maximixe. and a lot more other actions....jfelano - Wednesday, October 26, 2011 - link
Did they fix the Flash Player crashing issues that plague Chrome???mwarner1 - Wednesday, October 26, 2011 - link
I can't say that I have ever had Chrome crash due to Flash content & I have been using Chrome as my main browser on three PCs since the first publicly released version. Are you sure it is not just something that occurs on your PC?FaaR - Wednesday, October 26, 2011 - link
Chrome did crash/show sad smileyfaces on tabs rather a lot about two versions ago, it cleared up just fine in version 14. Not had a crash since.rddtretff - Friday, October 28, 2011 - link

Chrome is the enemy of your freedom and contains malware and botnets
