I think i'll just wait till the beta comes out... I need it to test my webpages... It should be alright. I dunno now but I hope it's gonna be alright. I didn't understand the article on how to prepare. I hope my scripting really isn't as bad as they're saying :)

Thanks for the information. I've been wondering when they would release a new version of IE, but so far, I'm not that big of a fan of tabbed browsing. Maybe this will change it but again, thanks for keeping us updated.

Ok, so it does have some cool features, tabbed browsing, RSS integration and the CSS2 support. I honestly cant say that I will switch over to IE7 from Firefox. I will still have IE7 on my computer for compatibility testing. (The more browsers you have for testing code, the better) All things aside, it will be good if IE7 makes an improvement on IE6. Most (good) web designers write their code to comply with the standards of the w3c and so using Firefox (in my opinion) is still the safest bet. By the way, thanks for the information!

We'll see, I guess. It's not a problem. Those guys at Microsoft have to do something. I don't think I'm going to switch to Firefox. Ie7 might be better (yeah right). But Ie works fine for me now and untill the difference gets extremely large, I won't switch.

DUDE!!!! The difference is already extremely large, Firefox is sooo much better then IE and will most likely always will be, its that simple:

Step 1) Lose IE

Step 2) Get Firefox

Step 3) Live life easier

after reading the articals on IE7 I don't understand how to check the UA, so I'll just have to wait, or do the unthinkable and drag myself outta my chair, stop reading about how to code PHP (teaching myself that) close out my GW game, shut down TS and get some sleep then tackle the articals again...lolOh I started using Firefox the other day, and WOW the differance is truly amazing...its a definet boost over IE6 and worth the switch.

You should stick with Firefox - Mozilla. Its much more reliable, and it can block lots of unwanted popups. I haven't gotten much stupid kind of popups in a while. Also, with internet explorer, I seemed to get more lag because of the amount it uses. With Firefox, I think it's actually much more faster, and doesn't lag so badly on big pictured sites. The only problem I would get is that firefox would never close fully sometimes. I would have to check my processes and end it that way sometimes. The way it is is much more convienent than many other browsers including internet explorer.

I have to agree with broli, try Firefox, at least while you wait for the new Internet Explorer. I mean, you may find that you do not like Firefox, and that is your choice. But to be honest, its lot better than the current IE. It is a very nice, fast browser with a lot of nifty features and plugins. And its comes with a google toolbar built in! I'm not too sure about the whole firefox doesn't fully close down thing. I check my processes fairly often and I have never seen it stay running after closing.

to be honest I never was a fan of Internet Explorer...Since I'm connected to internet I haven't even been using it... I directly switched to Opera... and now I use both Opera and Firefox. I'm not sure that ie7 is gonna be really good, but if you try it, let us know what's so good about it :)

Personally I don't see what all the talk about ie 7 is about. I am perfectly fine with the all the OTHER browsers except ie, and I doubt ie 7 will change this. I was on somebody's computer the other day, and they had the beta release of ie 7. To put it simply, it look the same to me. lol Neither he or me noticed a big change in performance, sercurity, or any other big issues. So Ill be sticking with Firefox for at least a little bit longer....
