Google this week released early developer channel versions of its Chrome browser for the Mac OS X and Linux platforms.

Messing around with the hard drive's structure is high on my list of the most unpleasant things to do with a computer. However, my basic do-it-myself credo is to never pay a computer shop guy to do what I can handle myself. My corollary to that philosophy is to never pay for software you can get for...
