It is QUITE different. Still fast in loading pages, which I like. Tabbed Browsing and rss. Pop up blocker. Search window. (defaults to MSN, but can change it)

Slimmer look. Cleaner interface.

Check it.

I'd rather rub my nuts on a porcupine. :) ... I don't trust MSFT beta's, ie 5 beta gave my computer a rash back in the day. :)

One thing is for sure the MSN Messenger Live Beta sucks..it slowed down and froze my computer for a couple of minutes. I had to uninstall it and re install the old version.

Might play with it. We'll see.

My Firefox will make sure nothing untoward happens in the way of 'I can't get to the Web any more.'

Friends don't let friends use IE - especially a beta version of IE.

Vive le Firefox!

I figure I'll have to support it at some point- may as well have a look.

I find it REALLY good. I've used it exclusively at work for a day, and so far, its just as good as using firefox, accept, things that only support IE (a lot of cisco guis, av, etc) work!

Thumbs up. Stable, fast, and a great 'thumbnail view' kind of like exposee on the mac.
