| It had a significant number of downloads on the first day. Any thoughts on this beautiful version? |

| Microsoft in their infinite wisdom decided to remove all status indicators, so now it's impossible to tell whether a page is actually loading or doing sfa. Pile of imho. |

i had the same thought...i think IE8 was a good deal more popular than previous versions, though. |

You should see the i got once because i deleted "THE INTERNET!" from a friends computer that i was fixing. They were very angry since i removed the internet from their computer which was bough exclusively for the internet. Got around the problem by pointing the IE shortcut to FF instead. None the wiser, bless her heart. |

I was just curious about it. I rely more on Firefox and Opera. |

I've gone off Firefox, it used to crash multiple times a day even after reinstalling. Benn using Chrome for 4 months now and never have a problem.
I hate IE, especially since at Uni its default set to Bing which we can't change...Bing is the biggest pile of I have ever come across, searching for scientific stuff and it just comes up with advertisements! |

i jumped off the Firefox bandwagon, and hoped on the Chrome wagon. Once I started using Firefox 4 a couple of months ago, I never looked back. greater improvement over 3.
you guys can rip on IE, but most companies adhere to a oh so powerful technological "mandate" to use proprietary commercial software, such as Microsoft products. hence offices use IE. I still use firefox at the office for browsing, but i also have IE for company standard material.
which does also explain why blackberry will never go away. |

Bing's "Travel" tab is excellent, but that's about all I use it for.
As for browsers, I use Chrome. |
