^^ I am so glad you decided to give us that useful information. Thanks for trolling though, we appreciate it. :rolleyes:

I just want to see what the CSS 2/3 support is like so i can see how much fun I can have design my sites (or how badly I'll have to hack them into looking decent in IE7) :pinch:

Firefox isn't ghey. :angry:

What's wrong with being excited about a fresh new version of IE?

Whoopee. No one cares. Go troll somewhere else, Opera boy. :rofl:

As for me, I've been an avid Firefox user since 0.9, but I'm quite anxious to try IE 7 when it's released. :yes:

I have Spoken with my buddy at Microsoft, and he is currently running it on his laptop for like testing he says it does not look anything like that screen shot and thats all he can say

How is that at 17 you have a contact at Microsoft that is willing to volunteer info to you that would violate an NDA and put his career in harms way? I highly doubt you really do.

Is it just me or does the interface almost look exactly like Firefox, save a few things? Kind of cheesy that they ripped it off that much. :/

"Exactly like Firefox"?

Do you realize that Firefox is not the first browser to have that kind of tab bar?

To me, that looks like customized IE6 with tab bar with it, and while there's nothing original about it, I find it hard to find resenblance from other browsers.

I think it's kind of cheesy that some people are completely blinded by their little Firefox fantasy.

Perhaps you will find this thread interesting... and enlightening.

Children! Hold Yer horses! This just coming in now! News that Microsoft has, for the past 5 years been developing software far in advance of what it releases to the general public!

I present to you, a (leaked) screenshot (of the about box) of Microsoft Internet Explorer 15, Service Pack 9!!!  :rofl:

And you thought Technology Development "Spotting" was boring! I beg to differ.....  :p

:rofl: LOL@ the about text..

It will. tab browsing in ie7 is old news. its already been confirmed way back. so what are you? firefox fanboy? opera fanboy? maxthon fanboy? aero browser fanboy? safari slave? why would u care about tab features in ie in the first place? ok imma stop now.

Actually, you can add tabbed browsing to IE 6. No, I am *not* kidding, so get your jaws off the floor. And you don't need a whole different browser (though there *are* browsers based on IE 6 that support tabbed browsing, like Maxthon and Avant Browser). The add-in is called MicroGarden WebTabs (yes, it's an add-in for IE, so it adds basically another toolbar), and it works like any other add-in or toolbar. The *hard* part is realizing or remembering it's actually there (if you are used to *not* having tabbed browsing in IE).

True but it's not free. :(

It's not only the tab bar - it's the placement of a lot of the UI elements. I'm not about to get into an argument about which Internet browser is the best, however. They all have their good and bad qualities.

and u relize that back from mozilla era of there alpha browser's they had the plugin feature, and with that plugin feature gave sight to tabs, skins, etc.. Firefox is just the new code design for mozilla's next browser (if i remeber correctly)

Though I agree on the part that firefox does resemble the botton lay out that ie has, but ie doesn't have in built in skinning feature and thats what makes firefox my favorite..

    • Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.
    • VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
    • Interesting read. I knew the adware was quite controversial at the time, however never realised to the point The Guardian wrote an article about Patchou. I just said no and enjoyed his creation, I’d probably be a lot more wary of something like that today though.
