    Default Microsoft Finally Made Something Decent Out of Internet Explorer

    Just downloaded IE9 and I'm pretty impressed. Reminds me a lot of google chrome, but I...dare I say it...like IE9 better.

    Only took them 9 versions to get it right though. They finally realized cluttered search bars were unattractive.

    I usually wait a month for my custom theme to be updated to the latest version.

    i use Chrome, but Firefox 4 being 3 points shy from 100 isn't bad, especially when they intentionally don't want to overly support SVG fonts right now just to pass a few tests.

    Egads, I'm going to wait to download any new browsers for the time being. Seems whenever I try to update, there is hell.
