I have tried the beta versions and had some issues (slow downs, lock ups, ect) which were too numerous to make a reliable web browser IMO. I will try it again in a month or so and see how it goes then. Give it some time to work the bugs out.

      seven is better then six or eight I find that haveing multi windows open in the task bar can cause issues.  The nice thing is that seven compacts them into tabs.

      Firefox started having the Tab feature.

        I have tried the beta version and it is pretty good.  It does crash on me quite a bit more than IE7 or FF though.

        You can have them in tabs all you have to do is press ctrl+t to open up new tabs on IE8.

                Never argue with a stupid person, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
