Because it installs GoogleUpdate.exe (look in your task manager) which runs every hour or so calling home. GoogleUpdate.exe also runs at Windows startup, even if you uninstall Chrome.

I think Chrome is a nice start. Seems fast and snappy, although it tends to render pages with alot of images a bit slow. I'm digging the "inspect this element" feature.

Until there is a comparable Adblock Plus extension (or extensions at all), I won't be switching from FF Not to mention all the talk going on right now about their EULA
