IE8 is perfect; I use it for 6 months now, in beta mode, and didn't have any problems. By the way, I just downloaded the finalized official version. Mozila Firefox, opera, chrome are all garbage. :wink:

Should I be ashamed to admit that I'm still using IE6.0 ? :lol:

Have you ever thought one great thing that microsoft made lately? Windows vista? IE7? no and no


firefox half the sites dont work with it and internet explorer 8 is released itas official version even though ive had rc installed, its very good, i wouldent use firefox again.. safari the new one is very good to, but will take some getting used to. and even though its a beta version its very stable
IE8 looks promissing, thats how vista looked...
Now about firefox not working on half websites, well tell me one major website that doesnt work with it? Any small site that doesnt work with firefox is simply cause the xhtml programming was done a long long time ago and the admins dont care to update it. Personaly I only know ONE website that doesnt work with firefox and i dont wonna mention it cause its nothing special.
Anyway anyone can have any broswer they like. I respect that. What I dont understand why would you wonna use an old technology with less features instead of new technology with so many addons.

Anyway thats my personal opinion.


mainly websites with videos last time i uswed it properly it just wouldent work... i guess im just used to ie more then firefox, dont get me wrong i dont hate the browser but i dont like it either... and vista is very good whats wrong with vista??? much better then xp

and new windows 7 soon which i have the beta installed on my test lap top

Firefox is the best. It is standards compliant and has a lot of useful plugins.
