The time has finally come for us to all get our hand on IE8 (or rather a beta of it)

First thing I installed it on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise R2 x64. Installation process took about 20 mins. This includes all up dates and scanning for malware. System restarted and I was greated with all the usual system is updating messages.

The import setting works, all my bookmarks and RSS feeds from Firefox was imported although none of the cookies were though. To be honest the browser still feels if it is rather of alpha quality than beta. Its slow even with typing a short simple message.

Given a few trials I am sure IE8 will beat IE7 hands down.
For now though either stick with IE7 or Firefox.
