zunipus:
Version 1 and 2 are covered here:
http://www.chromefans.org/chrome-tutorial/google-chrome-version-history.htm
There is also a google-run blog that shows previous versions of chrome complete with change-logs.
Version 3 is currently being used for the betas on Microsoft systems, while version 4 has been reserved for the current efforts on OSX, linux and future Microsoft releases.
Evil? A corporate scam? How about buying an operating system's technologies and re-branding them as your own?
And even if google was a marketing moron (which they aren't: they've built their company based on unique marketing methods- much like mac), how does that equal a contempt of customers? Don't make the internet any more stupid; research your claims.
Gerks:
Of that $1.42B, how much did you contribute? Judging on your expressed contempt for non-mac software, my guess is none. So stuff it.
If you did contribute cash, I would think that you would want them to release an application that is stable and works. If you don't know what I'm getting at, try this: what are you doing downloading developer software? If you were a software developer, you would likely understand that it takes time to port any software, even when all of a companies resources are devoted to the task, which they aren't. Have you heard of the linux port? How about Chrome OS? Check out the linux community's responses to their current port of chrome; they generally seem happy to have a choice in internet browsers, and happier still that when the final release comes it won't be broken due to a lack of preparation.

Re: BULL SHITE - bmartinez74
Seriously, this is what your life has come to? Obsessing over version numbers over a (free) web browser? I have never meant this more honestly and earnestly than now when I have told someone to, "Get a life." Please.Thursday, September 03 2009 @ 08:10 PM PDT
Re: BULL SHITE - zunipus
Boohoo. So sad. Not I. GOOGLE: for being so desperate as to pull this old Microsoft trick of rigging the version numbers so as to 'appear' to catch up with browsers that have been developing for YEARS.Shame on you Google and shame on YOU, dopey troll. :-P

BULL SHITE - zunipus
Thank you for handing me more ammo. Let's quote from the Google Chrome Version History, which mirrors the bull shite history of Microosoft's Internet Explorer when it was faking version numbers to catch up with Netscape's version number:September 2, 2008 - Version 0.2.149.27 ... [That's approximately 1 (ONE) year ago)
December 11, 2008 - Version 1.0.154.36 ...
January 8, 2009 - Version 2.0.156.1 [That is LESS THAN ONE MONTH after the version 1.0.x series began. This is called BULL SHITE, aka SCAM, aka CUSTOMER CONTEMPT, expecting anyone to buy that a whole version number of an app is run through in shorter than a month's time. Or here is a better word: DECEIT.]
NONE of the versions above were available for Mac OS X.
VersionTracker then notes Version 3.0.195.1 on July 24, 2009, finally a version for Mac OS X.
VersionTracker then notes Version 4.0.202.0 on August 20, 2009. That is LESS THAN ONE MONTH after version 3.0.x began. The same adjectives above yet-again apply. Or here is an even better word: EVIL.
You, subjective.music, are just another trolling shill for Google, out to SLAM and SCREW anyone who has legitimate criticisms of their blatantly odious behavior. Sorry. Not hurt by your idiotic rant. Am instead even more convinced, thanks to your links, that Google is pulling a SCAM on their disrespected customers. Talk about stupid! I will NOT be infecting my Mac with this Chrome bull shite. Hope you enjoy it!
