How many of you use IE8 or have used it before...?

Question

I am just Curious how many of you have used or using INTERNET EXPLORER 8 BETA1.

What are your opinions of it. Beta 2 is about to be released so I want to know what you guys think about beta 1 before it comes out.

I use it now, for testing and I think its improved DRASTICALLY and i most certainly would not say that unless I thought it was true.

oh, and to all you mozilla fans.. IE8 so far... blows it away with speed.

Thanks alot!

Answer 1

Its still bulky and lacks the sleekness that Firefox somehow manages to grab. Have you seen FF3?

There are a few compatibility issues that FF still has which is just the result of someone designing their script to only work with IE and is intentional for supposed security issues. These are rare, and in those cases, i switch to IE. Its still worth it to me to use FF because of its customization and quick loading and IE is annoying with flash and many of its other features are just way behind mozilla. Plus, IE STILL hasn't got its html interpretations right for people who design web pages.  

Answer 2

I use firefox and opera but I saw your question and I thought ....I have to try the new explorer. So I download ,I restart the computer and I open up explorer,and I got this message "Internet explorer has stop working.......check online for a solution......close the program".

Or even better I uninstall IE8 and go back to my firefox,

Edit.I found the problem it was "smart printing" feature from HP. IE8 now works fine ,I'll give it a try

Answer 3

I think IE 8 is far better than its previous editions ( leaving some small bugs ) ... it compares itself with Firefox and Opera.... And i dont see any change in Speed and the LOOK is cool.....
