But this isn't a case of two different markets...Google makes no money off of Chrome. They make money off of advertising. The bottom line of Chrome is that it is just there to view advertising. The better they can make it, the more it will be used, and the more advertising will be viewed (hopefully Google's)

It was defaulting to Yahoo who was paying them. Also their browser was mandatory, not optional. You don't need to use Chrome.

I switched to FireFox long ago.

Google Assist (enterprise support and management for Chrome) makes a bunch of money.
