Hey,

I'm 14 and am going to buy a dell inspiron mini 9 netbook soon(I've looked into others and decided I want this one so don't try to convince me to get others) however before I get it, I need to know if it supports Google Chrome and if Chrome works well on it because my Chrome is now the ONLY browser I use on my desktop computer at home.. So this is the final thing I need to know before I purchase my netbook.

So thanks in asvance..

See if you can purchase the mini 9 with Windows XP installed. They should have that option available when purchasing. You'll be very happy with this netbook. I have one myself and it's great!!!

Chrome does not run natively on Ubuntu, and if I remember correctly, the mini 9 only comes with Ubuntu.



Edit: Yes I checked, the Mini 9 only comes installed with Ubuntu, so you wont be able to run Chrome natively. There is a workaround but it is pretty complex if you dont understand Linux.

Yes. Google chrome is a browser that will work with your computer.
