May be they will incorporate some more advanced features but the arrival would be not sooner but later.
*The whole of the computing industry heaves a collective sigh of annoyance as Microsoft launches yet another successor before the predecessor is even done yet* lol
I like IE7 so 8 should only get better, Its a vast improvement on IE6 Take any stats and you should see that IE is the clear leader. While in my opinion, it's still a bit of a way from FF. Though I do think there are people, who live to ride the wave and bash anything whatever. Probably the same people that says "microsoft sucks and linux rules" when they cant use linux even buts seems the 'cool' thing to say.
they can get it more better by releasing it as open source ,so that it can compete with firefox in atleast one area
There are very few people who use ie. Instead of working on a new browser they should look at other browsers like firefox, opera and see why people prefer them over ie.
strike the "people".....very few WEBMASTER's! or maybe just tech savy check the stats...nearly every tom, richard, and harry use IE b/c they probably don't even know better alternatives even exist!!
I'm using firefox because of the added security that i've heard about but don't really know if it's true. Most of the time when i go to a trojan infected site my mcafee sounds the alarm while firefox would still load the page so i dont really see the benefit.
I prefer IE, however I use FF purely because I can do lots of tasks and not worry about a slow browser. If they speeded up IE it would be great, but for now FF will do.
