If you think that's bad, we're on Chrome 12 now... So they no longer officially support their own major release from a few months ago. I'm not sure what they're basing this on, but the major revision number doesn't seem likely.

You'll note that in the link it just says Chrome without a version number. They'll support their own browser differently. Unfair? Some might think it, but considering Chrome's success in forcing version upgrades on people it will work fine.

I think people are putting too much/too little thought in to this version number thing. With Firefox's six-weekly release schedule now they'll define a major release differently from the version number.
