Re: Chromium. Good Alternative for Chrome?

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel@panix.com>]

Chromium used to have screen reader acessibility which was useable with 
orca but that went away then speech-dispatcher support was available for 
a short time and now that's gone too.  So long as you won't need screen 
reader accessibility with orca you should be good to go.
