    Is everybody on this now, and is it working ok?</p>

    Had a disaster with IE7 which screwed my PC up and I ended up having to root it out and replace it with IE6, which I'm still on.</p>

    Dunno whether to go for it or not.</p>

    Don't bother

    Use Firefox or Chrome.

    The company i work for develop software and we are so far delaying developing on IE8 becuase our product architects think its a bag of ****. Wait until the first service pack is release then think about it.
    Personally I'd suggest you bin IE altogether and go for Firefox. Have a look at the available browsers here http://www.webdevelopersnotes.com/design/browsers_for_windows.php3

    IE8 in itself is a decent browser -I'm using it. Developers are complaning because it is now compliant with all the standards and their code isn't! I'm using IE8 and 99% of stuff is fine, but don't used confused.com that is well screwed with it!
