I'm thinking about installing it...



toggletoggle post by pam nli at Feb 4,2006 12:08pm
I use fire fox, I don't like IE.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 12:14pm
I use both at the same time.
firefox has a lot of CPU process time issues



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 12:17pm
plus IE works wonderfully with outlook to dnd images.
and you can run more than one IE process at the same time.

oh yeah, and..



toggletoggle post by Hungtableed at Feb 4,2006 12:18pm
I use Firefox, but this new IE has tabbed browsing. I think I'm gonna check it out.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 3:08pm
I'm using it now... wow, it's really nice.
all the fonts are better looking.

it's sort of like safari meets firefox.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 3:08pm
oh and the "search" thing in the top corner has yahoo and msn in it, but if you click on it, you can add more providers. I added google right away.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 3:21pm
ok, I just had to reboot it.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 4:53pm
whoah... it updated the LnF of outlook too.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 4:53pm
I guess this is the "future".... vista...

toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 4,2006 5:20pm

I downloaded this yesterday and I like it so far. I wasn't sure at first but I like the way the favorites go and how there is less junk on the top.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 5,2006 12:01pm
I was a little confused cause the refresh button is mia



toggletoggle post by pam nli at Feb 5,2006 1:04pm
can you add your own buttons in the tool bar like in firefox? cause I'm totally unwilling to sacrifice that.

cracked that gay windows validation shit finally, IE7 looks decent so far, thought it's using way more memory than firefox.

IE7: 55,428k
Firefox: 10,600k



toggletoggle post by DreamingInExile   at Feb 8,2006 12:25pm
I'm gonna give it a shot here in the office. alot of people I know have complained about IE7 so far, but this computer already has the PC HIV I think, so I really don't care what else goes wrong with it.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 8,2006 12:29pm
firefox at 10MB ahahahahahahahahaha
my ff runs at 120-200MB constantly.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 8,2006 12:31pm
it's running at 113MB when I posted this



toggletoggle post by RustedAngel at Feb 8,2006 12:34pm
I also just had only RTTP open in both just for that reading.



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 8,2006 12:38pm
I have 10 tabs in ff.
I like all the new fonts.



toggletoggle post by DreamingInExile   at Feb 8,2006 12:50pm
I'm not keen on the new fonts.

IE: 75,900 K -> 2 tabs
FF: 60,400 K -> 9 tabs

hmm.... can anyone say resource whore?



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 8,2006 12:53pm
I just tried with 11 tabs, all the same pages
IE: 90MB
Firefox: 123MB

ie is a notorious memory hog. but firefox is a notorious CPU hog.



toggletoggle post by DreamingInExile   at Feb 8,2006 12:58pm
true, I still much prefer Firefox over IE though. I have to use IE for most of the stuff at work, but I use Firefox when I can.

I've got enough CPU horsepower to hold me over her ein the office, but memory is at a premium. I hate that these machines have only 512MB of ram, that's shared with the video...



toggletoggle post by DreamingInExile   at Feb 8,2006 1:00pm
IE7 also hates WindowBlinds, the interface gets all mucked up unless you exclude it from skinning



toggletoggle post by the_reverend   at Feb 8,2006 1:03pm
I use both at the same time. they are always both open. I have 1-3GB of ram in all my computers so I can forget about ie.

firefox starts will just start taking up all my CPU process time, especially when there is flash on the pages and then I have to close it. I just installed version 1.5.1 and it's been better behaved. one thing I hate about ff1.5.1 is that it's tab ordering is messed up. in version 1.4 and below, I could hit tab and then enter to send my emails, now I cant.

how?



toggletoggle post by DreamingInExile   at Feb 8,2006 2:07pm
hmm... there's a feature that I really like in IE7, if you hit Ctrl+Q you get screen shots of all the tabs you have open and you can visually select them by clicking...



toggletoggle post by infoterror  at Feb 8,2006 4:05pm
Firefox is slow, handles local files badly, and has a bastardized interpretation of HTML/CSS that's even worse than IEs. Opera does some super-stupid things as well. Sucks that Microsoft is the market leader because they're the best, doesn't it?
