Re: [orca-list] Pre-testing of Orca with Chromium/Chrome

Also echoing Janina's comments, it's awesome. Can't wait for it to work 
with Chrome/Chromium out the box so a simple sudo apt install and start 
is all that's needed

So, is the sudo apt install google-chrome-unstable in Ubuntu the very 
latest one? I'm unsure as I've been told different things, but it seems 
to work fine for me either way. It's so speedy and responsive vs FF 
personally.
