"The author is also still on Windows 7, which is a 6-year-old OS and probably not the highest priority for Google's testing of Chrome." What? At the time of the bug 50% of laptops/desktops on the world ran Windows 7. How could Win7 not be the highest priority for the Chrome team?

While I agree that auto-update makes live a lot easier for web developers, i think this strategy of actively preventing users from running an older version requires more responsibility on the developers of Chrome to make sure the browser is stable.
