Where are the menus?

There is a dropdown menu on the right upper side. It is fairly narrow
in scope.

I don't believe (never believed) that a programs quality was a function
of its menus...

Read where Chrome needs some polish. It's pretty heavy on processor time.

I did not look at that. This is all the noise that comes out when there
is a first release of a product.

In the Chrome menu (the 'page_V' icon) on the upper right you can report
bugs and issues to chrome. That is was (I hope) people are doing. I
found a few nits and one bug. (The bug is a sudden, approx. hourly,
disk thrashing episode of a couple minutes that bogs down the system
[plenty of remaining CPU, but system is disk bound]).

In summary, it needs polish in lots of places ... that's what beta
releases are all about.

It also has some problems with Java apps. Seems to work on my desktop,
but can't access all features, and doesn't work at all on my laptop.
