This is googles web browser. Its bitchin fast. If you hate light blue then go to:

http://nukeit.org/2008/09/02/chrome-dark-a-custom-google-chrome-theme/

Seems very solid but lacks a bunch of features I regularly use in Firefox. Hoping them add them or allow extensions like Firefox does to support custom features within the browser.

Hmm, I'm using it right now and it is actually much slower than Firefox. I don't like it at all so far. It also doesn't seem to work well for scrolling down either. Maybe it just doesn't work well on the current low spec computer I'm on right now but the fact that I can type a sentence before it shows half is unacceptable.

I demand Latova to be updated for this! Oh, ironically Yoshi is currently playing Team Fortress 2 now... gonna ask.

Damn, he's too busy sniping.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
