System name:		quickstation-bexley

Display type:		ATI Technologies Inc RV380 [Radeon X600 (PCIE)]

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh (?)
Window manager:		unknown

What were you trying to do?
	Use Google Chrome

What's wrong:
	Google Chrome isn't installed by default on quickstation-bexley

What should have happened:
	It would be nice if Google Chrome could be installed on quickstation-bexley
	since it's very old and Firefox's terrible memory management slows everything
	down. I understand it is not supported by IS&T, but it would be nice to have
	the option as many residents already use Google Chrome and complain about how
	slow the workstation is when running firefox.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	http://www.google.com/chrome
