Test the new Google result page

There is a brand new design being tested for Google's result pages.  My opinion?  I love it.  Everything is where it should be, and it has a more modern feel with the subtle gradient effect in the title and footer bar.  The best part is that you don't need anything special to give it a test drive.

Simply paste the following code into your browser while you are on a result page to try it out (I added a few spaces for formatting purposes — remove them before you try):

javascript:document.cookie = "PREF=ID=fddb01133a87d314: LD=en:CR=2:TM=1177334998:LM=1177334998: GM=1:S=OOg0FEVzpPplxe9J; path=/; domain=.google.com"

I am impressed with this look, and I hope something similar makes it into production.  What do you think?
