9 December 2009 by Vinay No Comment

Chrome for Mac/Linux beta doesn’t have all of the features available to Chrome like on Windows, and it’s a beta release but that doesn’t means it’s unfinished, slow or buggy. Beta builds are pretty fast like Windows release and it’s very stable also. Chrome Extensions for Mac OS users aren’t available at the moment according to Dev team behind the Chrome “ If you’re on a PC or a Linux machine, you can check out more than 300 extensions in the gallery, including a few cool, useful and cute extensions . Extensions aren’t quite beta-quality on Mac yet, but you will be able to preview them on a developer channel soon. “
