anyone download it and try it out- if so what do you think about it?
I only tested it in windows 7 but that is not a fair test

R&D Internet Associates are who you need.

I like IE8!
I started liking it when it was Beta and RC afterwards, it works very well
for me, from e-banking to ebay to e-shopping and, of course, for work (OWA).
From my point of view, it's better and faster than any other browser I've
ever worked with.
Give it a fair try, I hope you'll like it as much as I do!
And installing it was so easy and smooth and quick, even with the 2 reboots
(the second one is automatic)!
BTW, I'm using XP SP3 with NIS (I didn't have to turn that off either!).

I've been running betas on many machines and like it quite well. DO
subscribe to the site-compatibility stuff.

The version in Windows 7 build 7000 is the pits, but the versions released
for XP and Vista have been fine for me.

I never ran the RC although I had kept up in the news as it went.
So far, so good - jury is still out, more later.

Many new tools and features to play with.

You post made me realize that it's now in public version. It's
supposed to be faster, tho I haven't seen that yet. But then the last
two weeks, IE has been slow to load and slow/unable to connect to sites
on my computer, ones where Opera and FF have no problem at all. Not
sure what to make of it.

how do you subscribe for it? I am downloading and installing it now on my
test machine

I think I figured it out
but when it installed it had an incompatibility to a sonic device driver and
it showed me how to disable it in the browser or favorites would crash. It
also explained this would not effect burning cds only ie 8.
So far it looks not bad
I need time to play with it some more and I want to put it on vista to see
how it goes there
I will need to present it at my seminars so I really need to work with it

I have been using it on XP and have found no problems but I still
prefer the simplicity of Chrome.

If you go to downloads.microsoft.com, hit the down arrow near search and
switch to advanced search, and show the latest downloads by date, and then
click on the date column header to reverse the order, so the newest
downloads are shown first (THIS IS A REALLY STUPID CHANGE TO THE
INTERFACE!)--there are some downloads specifically for IT pros and some
other categories of users to help explain what is different about IE8. one
or more of those might be useful to highlight what is different.
