Replacing Firefox with Google Chrome

[Marcos]

Hi!
You have more information here about my petitions for localizate to my
language (asturian language):
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=28348
and here:
https://answers.launchpad.net/chromium-browser/+question/90682

And do not seem very interested in the location of application (at
least for now), except for widespread languages :(
Best regards.
