But at the same time I was very unpleasantly surprised that right after I clicked the installation link they somehow decided I actually wanted to get the Russian-language version. I have stated quite a number of times that Google is far from perfect in their localization efforts and while I appreciate they think about Russian users and want to offer us a Russian-language version, why don’t they offer us some choice in addition? Besides, as I quickly found out, Google Chrome localization is far from perfect also. <br> <br>For more information, please visit: <br><a href="http://profy.com/2008/09/02/google-chrome-too-simplistic-or-perfectly-minimalist/" target="blank">profy.com/2008/09/02/google-chrome-too-simplistic-or-perfectly-minimalist/</a> <br> <br></font></td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <script type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show
