  I agree; which is why I'm against using that logo.  I think the 
leaning towards the multi-color version is also a move away from 
uniqueness requirement that a logo is supposed to have.
  To me it seems closer to the Windows logo than the Google Chrome 
logo.  But, the color choices in all three seem very similar.

  A Valid consideration.  If memory serves me, a requirement of the 
original contest was to avoid similarity to Adobe.  If everyone wants 
the multi-colored version; and it actually is using the Adobe logo 
color, I think that should be removed / changed.
