Confessions of a new, part-time Chrome user -- and related Chimp fix for Chrome users

I've tried to be nice about it, but, I've always hated Chrome. It had never performed acceptably on any of my computers, under Windows or Linux.

Well, after thinking about it for a year, I took a big leap of faith, and got an Acer C720 Chromebook, to replace my anemic, old netbook, which I've used when portability, long battery life, and low $$ risk count.

This thing is fantastic, and the Chrome experience is very good! I got the 4GB RAM, Intel Celeron model.

So, last night, I was doing my post-adjust bond updates, using Chimp on the Market Calendar page, where I would then access future adjust info from KaiGee, via Chimp. It's a pretty efficient way to do bond adjusts. But... the info from KaiGee was not appearing properly in the Chimp display, under Chrome. (You Chrome users were supposed to inform me of stuff like this.)

I did a quick fix to Chimp, to make up for The Google not supporting the metric I had coded for. That's available on the Chimp home page.

No, I'm not going to change over from Firefox, for general use. The features in Port Monkey do continue to function more completely in Firefox, where they originated. But, the function with Chrome IS pretty good, at least on my Chromebook.
