    Extensions should be their main priority as many Mac and Linux users will want to have them too.

    I've been using chrome since release and I have to say, when I moved to chrome from FF I was worried about the lack of addons. After using chrome for awhile though, I realized that the majority of addons I had were just not that useful, asides from Adblock, which I replaced with Privoxy. While addons would be a useful addition, I hope the team working on chrome maintains its speed and low profile first and foremost.

    Once they hurry up with extensions support so I can have NoScript and Adblock I'll make the switch.

    I am not too sure if Chrome will have Adblock - would that not be cutting indirectly into Google's business model?

    Chrome only now availebel on the Mac - for such a verbal community I have not heared much moaning and complaining.

    Once the extension framework is active they won't be able to stop people making adblocking extensions.
