Brass Tax on Chrome

So there is already an exploit: http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1843 There are naysayers: http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/39154/108/ And then there is the truth: http://www.stillsecureafteralltheseyears.com/ashimmy/2008/09/sucking-the-chr.html I like the design of the tabs and address bar, but I can do that with a theme in firefox. I want my add-ons, even with the memory problems. Chrome is great for Mom and Pap, but for “Internet Power Users” it falls lightyears short on features. So where is the brass tax?
