Well, this morning I'm a bit happier after downloading the top rated "purple" skin

, changing the default font, customizing the buttons on the tool bar and moving the positions of the various components around. Geez this thing is not for the feint hearted but the configuration options are immense if you're into customizations.
I'm finding the Gecko variant best suited to my own needs and so far all of my basic addons are all functioning normally. The browser itself is very fast and for a beta, so far it hasn't crashed or broken anything else
