  chrome
       
           (From automotive slang via wargaming) Showy
          features added to attract users but contributing little or
          nothing to the power of a system.
       
          "The 3D icons in Motif are just chrome, but they certainly
          are *pretty* chrome!"
       
          Chrome is distinguished from bells and whistles by the fact
          that the latter are usually added to gratify developers' own
          desires for featurefulness.  Often used as a term of contempt
          and sometimes used in conjunction with 'fluff', "all the fluff
          and chrome that comes with Motif".

From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.44 :   [ gcide ]

  Chromium \Chro"mi*um\, n. [NL., fr. Gr. ? color.] (Chem.)
     A comparatively rare element occurring most abundantly in the
     mineral chromite. Atomic weight 52.5. Symbol Cr. When
     isolated it is a hard, brittle, grayish white metal, fusible

     printing. Called also chrome.
