Internet explorer 8! What do you think?

    I'm trying to surf with it but now that I'm FF certified it ain't the same.

    I don't care for IE at all I don't see nothin' new.

    I did enjoy seeing the text with a more round shape though.

    What's your take if you even took the time to try IE8.

    I used only IE6 and FIREFOX for internet and both are working in good conditions.
    I never used IE8.

    All web developers know how inept and shoddy IE8 is.

    FireFox is the best, Internet Explorer has security risks.
    Something big for IE8 is the inPrivate browsing option, which disables any website from installing cookies on your machine.

    I experience a lot of compatibility issues with sites, but thats solved with the compatibility view mode.

    I use IE8 because it's standard on Windows 7...

    With so many issues that people mention, I hold myself from trying IE8. As long my Firefox does the job, I will use it all the time.

    I hate how the Fox updates all the time with the new add-ons that you have to keep to

    The fact is I have no idea of IE8 coz I am still using IE6 .
    Even I always use FF and maxthon .
    (Maxthon is a multiple tab IE core browser which I feel convenient .)

    I've just gotten really used to FF that I just dont like using IE anymore, I only use IE when I'm really in a hurry (because it loads faster), or when I have to visit a webpage which doesn't open properly in FF
