Chrome PreBeta 2.0.169.1 win AcidTest


In this days a new version of Google Browser Chrome is available in a pre-beta realese at http://www.google.com/intl/en/landing/chrome/beta/index.html.

Probabilly you have already read about the lot of new features this versione include, but i never hear about its new record on ACID3 Test. In fact Chrome 2.0.169.1 score in Acid Test is around 100!!
Try it by yourself.

Another interesting features I have found and that isn't well-know, is now the search function works well inside page text box area too.

Other features can be found on official Google Chrome Release Blog here.
Anyway the most important include form autofill, full page zoom and autoscroll (both thanks to a new version of WebKit), and a cool new way to drag tabs out to get a side-by-side view (shown below).
