Yes, I just updated via the updater when it prompted me to update chrome
and flash.   I have several chrome windows open with tabs.  If I close one
at a time, I lose what tabs were open except the last one that was closed.
If I log out (with them all open) then log back in, and run chrome, I get
all the windows with all the tabs that were open.  They all load in the
same workspace, but I just move each one to the workspace I want them in.
Firefox, just prompted me to restart, maybe it was that and not chrome, but
I thought chrome had prompted me at one point.

Thanks,

Wes
