I think google's approach is a terrible idea, as I hate the intrusivness of
automatic updates. What if I like the old version better or something in a new
release is not compatable with my computer? Also this encourages bloatware, as
new versions are almost never smaller than old versions.
And what is the point of switching from Windows to Linux if we hand over our
machines to some faceless people on the other side of the world? (no offense
meant, Ubuntu and Goolge people!)
