Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
Wasn't too impressed by RC1 & RC2 - didn't bother downloading RC3. Lacks tons of features you take for granted in Firefox and even more so Opera - plus it's still way behind in terms of standard-compliance...
It did remind me a bit of Word 2003 - wrote a manual with plenty of screenshots. When I selected some text (two words) to make them bold, it suddenly made the whole text bold (after about 5 minutes parsing). Then I discovered that the file was 109 MB in size! So whoopsadaisy I cut'n paste into a new document. Saved it - the size was 4.5MB! Same content. 104.5MB Word overhead. Staggering.
Plus Microsoft will push it out via Windows Update - so suddenly everyone will have IE7 overnight. Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers, Developers.
I just installed it. I am using it right now. Woopdeedoo. It is like a merge of Firefox and Opera. But with the nasty odor of IE to it. Looks a little nicer, has tabs and some other stuff built into it. But still not what I want to be using.
EDIT | By the way, it takes over your currently installed version of IE6 without asking. It just does it. And half the install takes place from the internet, and I am not sure what is being communicated.
