Just downloaded and installed Google Chrome (http://www.google.com/chrome) and was happy to find that the flashplayer runs fine. I did nothing. I assume it is using the same player that I have installed for Firefox - debug WIN 9,0,124,0 since I am running the release version of that in IE. WOOT!
Javascript intensive sites do seem a little faster, but of course that is just anecdotal based on my few minutes of using Google Chrome.

Interesting: Chrome installed onto a box after Firefox runs flash stuff perfectly.
Chrome installed onto a box with NO FIREFOX runs no flash content at all. The browser asks for a plug-in install, but after install still no soap.

Actually, I’ve got big problems with Flash content on sites such as YouTube. For example, when watching videos in fullscreen, Flash starts performing… weird.
