You can, Chromium has a large number of search engines available -
including b.g.o.

I don't know what FF's keyboard interface is like, but I'd call
Chromium's fairly meagre, certainly not as good as Konqueror's.

longer than any other package I have installed, but Chrome is a binary
package so should install very quickly.
