IE9 Beta is outFollow

#1 Sep 15 2010 at 12:07 PM Rating: Good
I'm playing with it now. So far, I don't hate it, which is saying a lot for an IE browser.

The GPU accelerated graphics is overhyped, but it does seem to speed up a few menus and such.

Now, all we need is for the good folks at AdBlock to get on the ball, and it'll be perfect. (Thanks for giving me a Huggies ad, ZAM. I know gamers are aging, but sheesh.)

Wrong diaper brand, they want you to make a whole bunch of little gamers. Preferably before E3 next year.

I played with it at work today. Ran some benchmarks on it, the sunSpider one and the futuremark peacekeeper one, also Acid3. 9 destroyed 7 and 8 in terms of speed and render ability. Oddly enough 7 was faster than 8 in almost everything. I found that amusing. Waiting for beta 2 before I load it here at home.

Not a big fan of the tab layout now, though i do like the drag to new tab window trick.
