Fingers crossed that they do it right this time. Right now I informally group browsers to test into four groups: IE6, IE7, IE8, and all the rest (where it's rare to find inconsistencies or WTFs). It would be great if IE9 went into the "all the rest" category.
- allbutlost 16y agoI've been running the beta for a couple of months now, testing sites I've been building on it as I go along. I can tentatively say that yes, it falls into the "all the rest" category for most common css/js issues that have plagued all its predecessors to varying degrees. It has still felt too slow, bloated and plagued with dialogues ("I can run faster, disable add-ons", "This page wants to use flash" etc) to serve as my main browser (currently FF for work and chrome for play), but the sooner IE users move to IE9 the better for front-end devs the world over. Thumbs up from me to MS for IE9.
- zaatar 16y agoIE9 RC has a ton of bugfixes and improvements over Beta. Compatibility rates are higher. If you liked Beta, you're gonna love the RC! And we did take in feedback and refactored a bunch of our dialogs & notification system for RC too ...
