Looks like IE7 has just leaked to the public, folks. Bad news (for some of you) is that you need a genuine copy of Windows to install it on.

Got a screenie? I've only seen shots of IE7 on Vista, so I'm curious to see how it looks on XP.

As we know Mozilla will be bringing out Firefox 2, which will be the big release like IE7, so wait and compare them when both have bought out the next big releases, as its unfair to compare at the moment

I dont think so.

I think Firefox kicked IE ass a long time ago.

You can find everything (and more) that IE have on Firefox.

Did anyone read that vista (and may even be present in the xp i.e 7 release) will come with two "versions" of I.E 7? (i'm giving them these names, but you'll know what i mean) the "everyday" version (the one you'll have a link to in your quicklaunch etc.......customize, add google search and whatnot to) and a second "limited" version which has 0 plugins therefore simply can't be compromised in the way other versions could (i read this on the winsupersite) a great idea i think, especially when you need to get online to find out how to fix/disable whatever corruption has occured or when crap has been installed on the "everyday" version (which is inevitable, there's no denything that.)

Smart move from MS methinks (although, there would be instances i would use the "limited" version for normal surfing if i was going to a site i was unsure of.)

Dont like IE7 it still has alot of work to do obviously but the UI is horrible, still fails the acid 2 test(no shocker) it just doesnt flow well, i am sure alot will be ironed out later but right now it is useless for me.

Firefox also fails it and I'm pretty sure so does Opera.

      If you are willing to go to approx $200, then as mentioned in your other thread I think a refurbished Pixel 8 will be a great deal that will last you for years. I recently recommended that to someone at work, he was on a strict £200 budget, which got him an excellent conditioned refurbished Pixel 8 here. He's since told me its the best phone he's ever had and feels its a massive upgrade over his old Samsung A series device. I don't know the sites which deal in refurbished devices in the US, however I’m sure you will have some options like we do here. Failing that Ebay is also quite good in my experience. If you wanted something a bit cheaper, then you could maybe go for an older Pixel 7, these will still get security updates until the end of 2027. Even after that you have good third party OS support from LineageOS. It doesn't have to be a Pixel though, you can buy many older devices for a good deal that would be better than a new $100 phone and flash LineageOS to them: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/

      I don't use one drive, but then I don't use any cloud storage, not even Icloud on my mac. If I did use cloud storage, then I would not use One drive, not because there is anything wrong with it, but because I can use Icloud. The only reason I see to use one drive is if your job requires you to have access to it

      Not built in, which is not a bad thing. There are ways of adding cloud storage to it, Dropbox is the most well know that also have a client for Linux, but there are others.
