There's actually no useful features. Microsoft should give up.

.. Are you kidding me? I swear IE 9 will solve 99% of every issue I've ever had with IE.

You know what else will solve 99% of every issue you've ever had with IE? Using a browser that's not IE. :D

Yawn. You all forget I use a mac, and hence, do not have IE (actually, that's a lie. I have IE like... 5.23 for mac or whatever it is) on my computer.

I'm just saying from a developer standpoint, IE9 looks promising.

IE 5, 6, 7, and 8 all looked promising. They werent.


IE7 and 8 actually were, though. From a code support point of view, they were lightyears ahead of 6. If you are a developer, you loved 7 and 8. End users... not so much. Bad UI and it was very slow. But developers like it.

IE7 Is pretty much the same code as the Explorer shell browser. They made it more of an adjunct in the end. IE8 has pretty much all the code 7 does, but with more crap to go wrong.




The Microsoft Evolution:

Make something • 3
Happy with it
Build on it
Happy with it • 95
Build on it.
Something goes wrong • 98
Make a second version • 98 SE
Stable but prone to errors
Build on it
Realize it's a failure • ME
Build on another thing and claim it's built on proven technology • NT
Happy with it • XP

And da capo.

Make something • Vista
Happy with it
Build on it
Happy with it • 7
Build on it.
Something goes wrong

You know...

I don't care who you are, developing for IE7 and IE8 is SO much easier than any previous version of IE.

And IE9 will be the easiest to develop for, ever. They're hoping to get 100/100 on the acid 3 by release. Considering it went from like 24 (or less) to the current 95, I'll say IE9 is worth a LOT more of my time and effort.

I downloaded the preview, it froze on "Downloading", I tried to alt+ctrl+Del, and it didnt work, so I had to ctrl+shft+esc, to shut it down.

If the preview doesnt even work, Id hate to see the actual thing.


Yep, because pre-release software is often so stable and ready for the average user.

Acer doesnt affect how vista works, my friend.


Weren't you the one defending Vista? I might be confused... :P
