No problem :)

(As far I could make out, it's not possible yet to build Chrome/Chromium/Iron with free tools -- hoping that this will not remain the case for too long..but I'm not holding my breath.)

Better have a speedy computer to compile the Chrome/Chromium/Iron code. It took me nearly 2 hours to do it from scratch on my dual-core laptop. After that, it isn't too bad. Make sure you also have the Windows 2008 SDK v6.0 and v6.1 installed on your computer or otherwise, the code won't compile. Also, expect to wait a few hours while the Windows 2008 SDK installs, and I do mean hours.

The SRWare Iron version of the Google Chrome browser works just great. It is also updated quite frequently.
For me this is the best browser for laptop screen real estate.

Actually I found a kinda neat use for it...
You know the "make a web app look like a normal app" feature?
I used that for the web interfaces for Popfile and my router.

They look a little less cluttered and it behaves the same as in a browser, but really that's not a big deal at all.
Cute maybe, but necessary? Nah.
Which you have been able to with Prism since almost a year prior to Google releasing Chrome. Why does everyone get hot and bothered when Google release something "innovative", but when Firefox gets an upgrade all you hear are complaints?

Ehtyar.

Gee...
I didn't know about Prism.
