1. Comment - Microsoft: We're Close to Shipping IE7

   (Aug 27, 2006 - 4:15 PM)

   I have been using IE7 since Beta 1 alongside Firefox and Opera. Install problems with betas 1 thru 3 would drive me nuts on some systems, turned out I had to uninstall Zone Alarm to get the installer to complete!
   
   I like the ability to setup multiple search engines natively and set the default to anything you like, the clean interface and the printing enhancements. Tabbed browsing is essential but I was grumpy that Beta 3 forced me to accept msn.com as my homepage, I couldn't even change that with registry hacks, was better in Beta 2. Beta 2 allowed me to set a tabbed group as home page as for FF or Opera.
   
   The install of RC1 is light years ahead of the Betas and uninstall is clean and trouble free.
   
   Unfortunately IE 7 still breaks my HP Director scanning software, even the latest version. I can print but not scan. It is a little known bug but still not fixed so I will continue with Opera for now. I aint going to get a new printer to let me use IE 7. C'mon HP/M$ get your act together.

   It would be interesting to see the opinions, legal and public, on this issue if both companies were American.
