Internet Explorer 7

IE 7 is out! I saw this on slashdot RSS this morning. I mean clearly Microsoft has some amazing software engineers if they can finally copy features such as. Tabs, RSS, but what really shocked was the print prieview which is similar to the one that i first saw on Mac OS X.

So heres the link for anyone that needs it: Internet Explorer 7: Home

I won’t lie. I really wanted to try IE7 out to see if it works on my website and give an objective analysis on how fast it is and how the tabs are and if it displays my website correctly or not. So how far did i get? Right up to the “Validate your Windows” part. At that point for reasons I’m not really sure of i decided not to go any farther because i had the feeling that if I did I’d be reinstalling soon enough ;) And that IE7 wouldn’t finish installing anyway because there might be errors validating for whatever reason?..

Anyway i’m still quite interested as to how well it will display my site. We’ll just have to see. I’ll write again when it does. But atm I’m still recovering from getting Bill Gate’s shaft early in the morning.
