The beta came out on Wednesday. Has anyone tried it? It's only for Vista and Seven. I have to admit it is pretty good. I can be pretty picky with web browsers. Before I tried out the beta, I was using Minefield (Firefox 4 Nightly Release). Minefield is pretty good but it is still incomplete and I have difficulty with resizing windows on it. Internet Explorer 9 works the best on my Windows Seven partition. Considering their release cycle, other web browsers will surpass it very soon though but for now, it will be my default web browser.

Does the beta cost $? I don't like windows because it makes my keys move when i don't press them, so I can't play, games so I use firefox.

I'm sticking with Chrome... but I think you're right.

I like everything in chrome except its look. I like all applications looking native.

A fail can't be updated to be made better. Well it can, but this is no exception.

Sounds reliable bro don't worry. IE needs to just stop, make some pretty colors and less buttons and call it a success. Sure...

Safari is the best browser, Chrome is the best browser for Vista.

If chrome didn't look cartoonish, I would use it. As soon as a Firefox 4 RC comes out, I am switching.

Anyway, I have been test running IE9 for a few days now. As I keep using it, I notice some things that are still the same from IE8. There is an inconsistency with page loading speeds, pages will lock up without indicating that they are still loading, you can't make an app/pinned tab, it is hard to exit out of multiple tabs, and google images only works in standard view. IE9 claims it comes with all these nice new web technoligies but it seems as though they were implemented terribly.
There are a few things I like such as Windows 7 integration, great use of screen space, great startup time, easy to resize the window border, and hardware acceleration.

They did improve the browser but not enough for me to continue on using. I doubt they will fix most of the issues I had with upcoming betas..

You're kidding? Safari sucks. Well, the Windows version does. Never tried the Mac version.

I've heard that Camino is the best for Mac Os X. I am not too sure about that though.

Ah.

I'm gonna stick to Chrome. It's lightning fast, and Firefox really isn't going to be good in my opinion.
