Re: Internet Explorer 8 reveled

Downloaded for XP SP2.. Download size is 14.6 MBs

Looks wise.. Not much change... I cant even see any new must have feature (Maybe thats cause I tried it for just half hour..),,... Pages seems to load too slow compared to Opera but faster then FireFox... It crashed 2wice (But its beta naa)..
So After testing it.. I am NOT waiting for final version... unless they include features which are not available in any other browser... (In other words the should innovate something new.)

A lot better now.
I hope they also add a download manager or someting.

Offtopic again, why not merging the other thread with this ? Discussion is almost same / similar in both.

Re: Internet Explorer 8 reveled

no wonder opera sued them .... they were certain that once ie 8 comes out opera will be searching ground ... ff has the OSS community, macs hav safari, ie8 will make sure less no. of casual but technically inclined ppl look for alternatives ....

so lets see now - server 08 - critically well received; ie 8 beta - yes it is promising only acid 3 being a thorn otherwise its got a lot of features right at the click of a mouse; vs 08 - u shudv heard the cheers at the launch event ; .Net coming to silverlight

so after vista's rather not so good reception ... MS is bouncing back

well the simplest explanation of silverlight is that its a stripped down version of WPF tailored for web and coupled with .Net 3.5 WPF+.Net 3.5+Silverlight is gonna big really big

But I think that Silverlight is not correctly working on IE 8 BETA as I failed to open tafiti.com in it.

Well, using IE 8 for 4 days. Its interface now looks much more streamlined (atleast on my vista basic themed lappy, no aero). For the first time in my life i have started using favourites bar, i never found it useful enough, and more than that in almost all browsers, it looks ugly to me.IE7s fav bar also does't looks as good. But the new fav bar integrating smoothly with tab bar looks asthetically pleasing to me. Again, personal choice, it is. Tabs are thin now which is good,also there is more space for tabs since favourites buttons have been moved to links bar. Rendering engine needs quiet a lot of work, but that is acceptible in beta and emulated mode works without problems.
web slices and activities both are welcome features. So all in all a nice release, for now i'll continue to use combination of browsers as i've been doing it b4.

@switch: Yes you are right. The new addon management window is neatly designed now, and its easier to work with. IE7's looked pathetic.

IE 8 is the first web standard complaint version of IE

IE8 should stand out from other IE versions and finally m$ made some web standard complaint browser
