I really like it. Beta 3 seems like its about there. Its way quicker than 6 in my opinion and i love the interface. I like the tabs and i like the little tab window button. Everything seems right to me. What do you guys think? |

Well I just made the switch over to FF, and wow. I can't beleive I waited this long even though i've been a member of this site forever it seems. I'm with EX on this one, IE7 is better, but not as good as 3rd party browsers such as FF.

I'll have to disagree with all of you. Opera would be my choice over all of those.  |

A couple of my co-workers are testing it out and they love it, along with Media Player 11. I like Media Player 11 because of the more compatibility with your PDA/Smartphone. I still haven't downloaded the betas though.

MS was forced to update IE because of pressure from 3rd party browsers, which means they care NOTHING for the users of their product. They're not updating IE7 to make a better product, they're just catching up to FF so they'll get some market share back
I'll pass on IE7 |

well as vass said it is a BETA.. I've found it a little quirky.. over all I like it.. but there is things I wold change about it.. I've also had system shut downs from using it 2 times.. I was on a web site, and I opened a video.. next thing I know.. my system cut off.. rebooted.. hit the web site again.. and opened a video file again.. and again.. the system did the same thing.. rebooted.. played the video without IE open.. and no problems.. so IE7 has some issues.. and that is why it is a BETA.. so only install it if u are willing to risk data loss, or other bad things happening =)

Well i notice the beta 3 to be much more stable and much faster than beta 2. So maybe when this thing is finished we'll have something here. |
