Anyone tried this yet? (Mac lightweights need not apply :wink: )

Just curious. I know IE isn't deemed acceptable by the informed minority but I've had it a few days and it takes a bit of getting used to. It's more like Firefox (those plagiarising Microsofties!!)

Also, ebay turbo lister 2 is out. Still not great but better than the old one.

How is everybody? (all 5 of us :wink: )

I'm going to have a look today at some stage. I wanted to look at Adobe's Lightroom Beta, but it is for Mac only at this stage :evil: .

I'm fine, thanks for asking. It's been so quiet around here lately. There was a real burst a few months back, but nowt since. Shame really.

I'm still here (just).

Pah! IE! Bollocks! :wink:

Actually, I didn't mind IE until I found out what web standards meant...

:lol:

I've had a quick look at it since yesterday. I think you'd have to try and pry Firefox from my cold, dead hands :wink: .

I always find Firefox a bit slower than IE. Takes longer to load itself and then any pages.

Also I've l just take a ... er ... 'peek' :wink: .. at Dreamweaver 8. I know it's probably been out a while but I don't use it much. It's nice to see the style sheets display properly now. Used to drive me mad; all those ovelapping bits.

i was invited to test IE7 and the new MSN live talk, but must have to agree it was soooo much like firefox/camino, that your right about plagarism.

Trouble is it still has that horrible shitty border, that M$ always has around things, that is what spoils it, why not just buy Firefox and be done with it, its sooo much more up to date and so on
