I agree with Chris, not permitting a user to use the source, what's the point then? It's not GNU but it may be OSS Also as was brought up in a septate thread, there is no way to stop Chrome from d/l content, which is important to me. Thus after using Chromeum exclusive for a month, yes it's faster, but not by so much that I want to give up my plug-ins and freedom.
Thus I am dumping Chrome/um and going back to Firefox, backing GNU projects and style licenses have always panned out well for me.
