Why Chrome for MAC is getting delayed

If you happen to be a MAC user, and want to get your hands on Google Chrome. You can do that, but it might not be worth it. I say this because there are plentiful features that are not working. It is really strange when one thinks why Google is taking so much time in the port process.

Working Features

Here is a list of the features that work in Mac version of Chrome:

• Basic Websites (Gmail works sometimes)
• Bookmark pages
• Most visited sites
• Open link in new tab
• Open new tabs
• Omnibox
• Back, Forward, Reload
• Full Screen Browsing!!
• Open link in new window
• Drag a tab to make a window
• Launch new tab
• Cut, Copy, Paste
• Keyboard shortcuts
• about:version, about:dns, about:crash, about:histograms

Not Working Features

Now coming to the part which describes the feature which are not working. These are

• Open link in new tab fixed in Rev 13759
• Plugins (No Flash -> No YouTube)
• History (You can view it through this link chrome-ui://history/ You will also be able to do a full text search there)
• Omnibox fixed in Rev 13759
• Bookmarks Bar
• Find
• Print
• about:network, about:memory
• Web Inspector
• Input methods such as Kotoeri (Japanese)
• Preferences

The list of working and non working features are from version 0.1, build 15170 from May 1st

However one impressive that we found out was that Chrome for MAC does gives you the ability to perform per-tab process control. This can be viewed in the Activity Monitor program, which is similar to Process Manager available on Windows. Even this feature has a problem: it assumes that every single tab is not responding, but it is still nice to know that you have total control and can decide which tab to kill.
