    TestDrive Internet Explorer 9

    Interested in checking out the new Web platform capabilities of Internet Explorer 9?





    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.

    Just read it. Well, that's the way Microsoft work. Trying to find ways to make users buy new OS from them.

    Anyway, as we all know, there are much better browsers like chrome and firefox available and we hope they can maintain the lead even with IE 9. So XP users do have a choice.

    I rarely use IE until its compulsory on few sites.
