Yes... Google Chrome is different from Chromium...
In case of doubt, use synaptic to remove the software.

1) In order to avoid the rather large updates for Chromium, I would like to
uninstall it (I use Firefox anyway).
I have tried the following two commands, but with no joy.
sudo apt-get purge google-chrome-stable
and

Hi,
for people who still use Chromium (like me) in 14.04, you will be aware
that we need to disable iBus for it to work.

I cannot test lubuntu with such low specs... But I have already used
lubuntu with several Celeron D processors, and about 1gb. Chromium is
always unstable for me, specially with Flash.
I use to install Chrome, and Firefox... I use to install restricted extras
as well...

Hi Boss,

on me no matter if high end build or very low end. The first thing I
usually do is remove chromium.
