Nope, it's not available for Linux yet. But they say they're working on it.

I've been using it since shortly after it was released. It's great. Very few sites that are not compatible and it's very quick. Too many people using Firefox, so any possible holes get exploited immediately. Opera had too many compatibility issues. IE is garbage, and I'm not an apple fanboi, so safari is not really doing it for me

I've been using it since it came out and I love it. Super fast, super easy to use and intuitive. WAY better than the overheavy IE8 and I like it better than Firefox.

I liked it, but I missed my adblock, so I went back to firefox. Running a 3.5 beta right now that I like a lot. You can do turn tabs into new windows in this version.

Lately I have noticed that FireFox uses tons of resources.

Looks like I should give Chrome a try.

Use it at home but gave up at work. Doesn't work with NTLM. Crashes (Aw Snap) a lot. SSL what?

Too unstable so I remove it from work laptop.

I use FF and Opera mostly, but I do use a spinoff of chrome from time to time. It's called SWare Iron browser, same exact thing only without all the personal tracking crap google packs into chrome.

I couldn't use it full time though. I use and like too many of FFs addons, and and chromium isn't as fast or safe as Opera. I like the layout though, I recently skinned FF to look like it
