its a browser man, if Microsoft was mean they could make a perfect browser
and take over the market share but that wouldn't be fair for other browsers
just be happy it works nice

I wish they would make a great browser. It doesn't make anything easier on developers. Lots of people out there still use XP. They really need to add more CSS3 properties at least and release a IE9 Lite version for XP users. It's hard to try something new for my own businesses and my clients, when most the world still uses IE.

I really hate that text-shadow wasn't included. I hate having to use photoshop to make a simple text-shadow for IE users.

Windows XP is in extended support! Windows XP users won't be getting anything other than security updates from here on out. IE 9, Office 15, etc... Is out of the question. Don't like it? Too bad so sad. It's time to move on. Period. Evolve or die.

Some people's machines cant handle it, and since USA (I am assuming USA, thats where I live) is in a recession... yeah, cant be helped. Want to get rid of XP? Tell the Chinese to go to Vista/7 or Linux. They hold the world's record for not upgrading past XP.

Not being able to upgrade, is different than choosing not to upgrade for whatever reason. I'm seeing silly excuses all over the place today.

If you hide the address bar (Url bar) how are you going to goto any websites?

Ok. Lacking CSS3 properties and other HTML5 features. Not even a simple CSS text-shadow.

This is the final version and it's supposed to be a more beautiful web???

XP users aren't missing anything. XP users continue to user Chrome or Firefox. You know browsers up to standards.

Not trying to be a kill joy, but I expected the final IE to support more. It forces developers to still use old methods than trying new ones.

You are aware Microsoft didn't support a lot of the HTML5 technologies because they weren't finalized right?

Nothing worse than a browser with a long release cycle shipping a implementation that gets outdated 2 months later.

It was something like you had to enter the url in the tab itself.

You are speaking of my IE9 Address/Tab Bar concept. It was just a concept that I made and submitted to Microsoft. It wasn't used, but Chrome is now however making a similar feature.

That was the only feature that I was waiting for damn MS now let's wait for IE10

Yall HAVE to see this. I installed the new RTM today, as where i had the RC installed.
I use Chrome, and I have IETab installed. IETab uses IE to render the page, fully by trident, and it show sup in the Chrome web browser.

Well guess what? IE 9, the new one just released..... failed in the Quick-and-Dirty Canvas test that is out there, to show a spinning ball graphic, and calculate FPS.

See? IE9 FAILED. IETab uses IE for full rendering, so dont place the blame on the plugin.

Here is the Canvas test BTW...

How long does that test run? Just curious because I let it go for about 10 minutes with no results. Just a fast spinning ball with the alphabet running across it.

Or was that what you were referring to when you said that it didn't calculate the results?

Run it in its own process.

It appears that the developer got it to run in IE9 so something is obviously messed up with the plug in or on your end altogether.

[Chrominator]

I agree with yanike. No round edges, text shadow and many simple CSS properties are missing in IE9.

The USA is hardly in a recession anymore.

We're recovering but things are only getting better.
