Sucker for a pretty [type]face

So, IE7 pre-beta.

Yup.

If you install it, it installs over IE6, as opposed to installing as a seperate application.

It renders CSS pretty good, except when it doesn't - that's when it renders it REALLY BAD. RSS? I'm stealing the phrase "glorified favourites feature" and leaving it at that. The tabs are so old news they actually create a black hole in the features list that has sucked in other new features, and you don't want to get me started on the new logo.

Then there's the text rendering. Oh, sweet text rendering:


On the left we have Firefox (and a little strip of IE7 because I'm sloppy and lazy) on the right we have IE7 - which is displaying how Windows Vista will also render text.

So... pretty. So wonderful. So temporarily blinding me to the potential failings of IE7, but that's probably going to be short lived. In the meantime, I'm going to make believe I'm browsing the web on a Mac.
