One thing that peeved me is that horrible baby powder blue window frame decoration. Pathetic, I know, to be bothered by aesthetics, but I like my windows to use the same theme, and use the theme I choose. Are Google being deliberately ironic in producing a browser called Chrome where you cannot change its window chrome? In a way I was relieved I didn't like it as I use Ubuntu and would have had to run it in a VM anyway. Cheers, Mark P.S. Thanks for a good and interesting site.
