Well I took a gamble and loaded IE9 straight on to my main Rig and to be honest I forget it is a Beta. At this point I would say it is 99.9 percent on delivery and stability right now. MS are enjoying a run of well recieved software right now. (Win 7 Office 2010) I believe this has resulted in a large number of people having the confidence to go for IE9 in Beta. I have had it since its release and I have no regrets at this stage.

I wish our organization would rush the upgrade to Windows 7 so at least our office browsers would have the much needed update from the crappy IE8.

Tried IE9 beta, didn’t like the layout, too much empty space at the top of the screen, and very annoying the fact favorites pull down is now on the right side of the screen. I like IE8 is much better. What I find strange is people saying Firefox is faster than IE8 or 9. I recently began using Firefox 3.6.10 because I love the ad blocker feature, (wish IE had ad blocker) however, it’s much slower than IE so what are you guys doing to get Firefox to run faster?

Tried it. Speed is good. Don't like the minimalist look. HATE searching from address bar, wnat sidebox back.

Of course. Microsoft deserves every praise in massively improving Internet Explorer. I have managed to convince my friends that used Chrome to switch back.
