GooChrome First Impressions

Well went and grabbed it when I got home tonight after dinner and working out.  Like it so far but can't stand the blue look of it too much default winXP install look and I nuked that right away after a reinstall.  Problably can go look but haven't noticed or found any UI tweaks to be done yet.  But really haven't gone looking at the files in it's dir yet.  
Pages load smooth and liked that it pulled my Firefox hotbar and such in as is instead of rearranging them.
For now though I'll just use it to hit my own sites as I have FF in lockdown mode compared to this a nice new open building as it were.  It just needs more to be my fulltime browser things like a firebug, noscript, flashgot, a and a more robust web developer plugin. 
Since it's a webkit backend I probably won't need to bother with Safari anymore to check coding for it.
It like Safari suffers from the not hiding the interface when you goto fullscreen also, would be nice if those tweaks were added like FireFox does.
