Webkit based browsers like chrome are what all the cool kids are touting this year, Windows and Mac versions abound but Linux ones are a little thin on the ground. I've been playing with the alpha build of Chromium (a Linux port of Chrome) for the last couple of weeks and the results are impressive. Aptitude grabs the latest build for me every day* and it seems to be coming along nicely.* Here's another reason to switch to Linux; A central software manager - Updates everything on the system as required. Just yesterday it gave me new nVidia drivers. It's like Windoze update on speed but with less b0rkage and it updates all software on the sytem.
P.S. I made it sound like Aptitude does this without asking, you do get the opportunity to veto any updates.
That's why I'm Linux :-)
