Microsoft's new Web browser, Internet Explorer 9 stands in the wings. A very early test version invites you to try. "Internet Explorer 9" Now you can first try as much slimmed down edition. The so-called "Platform Preview is" merely a demonstration of the revised browser engine.
In addition to presenting web pages (with "Ctrl + O"), you can start with the preview version as good as nothing. You have to give up nearly all the features that characterize a modern browser.

Numerous demonstrations, which will examine the new engine for their suitability, provides Microsoft with the trial version.
We look forward to what will bring the IE 9 in the final version. The speed increase in this "Platform Preview" impressed.

Note: To install the "Internet Explorer 9", you need the pre-release Internet Explorer 8.

I heard about it over the web. Still to test it. Hope it can start matching other browsers like chrome and firefox.

Win XP and IE 9, not possible? :-(

Not including XP? Microsoft is taking new route to force users to shift to Win 7 guys.

I don't think IE 9 beats Opera or Chrome. I hope it performs better, especially a designer friendly browser.
