    No need to worry about versions, just use the Ubuntu Software Centre, located in the Applications menu.

    this may be quicker: open a terminal and type in:
    Code:
    sudo aptitude install chromium-browser&& sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras.
    Then type your password.

    would probably b a good idea to calm down. Maybe the Software centre is a bit slow on a netbook.

    this is a game called chromium-bsu.

    chromium-browser is what you should install.
