Heh, 2 words for you: tabbed browsing
And no this isn't meant to start a debate about how great or awful IE is, this just goes back to a discussion he and I had yesterday.

And how is this better than Firefox? Fewer security problems? ...Oh, wait.... Nevermind.
...Yeah, how?

I think it just brings IE up to date with the most demanded feature of Firefox. It doesn't make it better.
As for Avant... eddie uses that too. I've seen a lot of things not work in it that work in IE and Firefox... so I won't touch it.

Yeah, Avant is good for most pages but it's had issues with some sites, so now I've switched over to IE 7.0.
I never said it was better than anything else. Like I said in the first post this isn't meant to say IE is better than <insert browser here>, it was just showing Bio that they finally put it in and nothing more.

doh! MSDN only on the IE7 beta.
I guess I'll wait until it goes public.
