IE

Microsoft released Internet Explorer 9 beta today. I installed it. It's not that much different. It's a bit leaner looking, but the web pages are still web pages. The border is translucent, but.. you know.. whatever.

There comes a point with software where you really can't do much more. It's like the operating system. I really like Windows 7, but I could still be running XP and it would work just fine.

/edit

I had to put blogger in "compatability mode" in order to publish this post.

/update

aggghhhhhhhh MSN poker isn't working now.. might not have anything to do with the new browser, but if it does.. LOL

/update 2
Yep.. it's not working. MS released a browser that doesn't work with their own gaming web site. Not only that, but you can't uninstall plug-ins to see if reloading them in the new IE would fix the problem.

I get the whole "it's a beta" thing.. but ya.. pretty funny.

/update 3

So ya.. went back to IE8. The new browser isn't ready for prime-time.
