So...what's the verdict on IE7?

people just don't use it because it's from "microsoft," and feel like being different by using FF. I do like opera however.

Have you ever heard of OSS? FF has thousands of extensions that can block adds, add even more security, and even make it look better. I think I've made this comparison before but...

IE7 = IE6 + FF 1.0
FF 2.0 = Opera + Thousands of OSS Extensions
Opera = FF - OSS

FF FTW!

If it had mouse gestures, I'd probably use it. As it is, I can't stand using a browser without mouse gestures. So I use Opera.

I like it but I wish the menu bar was at the top like regular programs.

There is a right-click option to get the menu bar back. One the right side of the menu bar and do a view menu (something like that...I can't install it yet in the office on my production machine and have not gotten around to dl'ing it here yet on development.

I am testing it out at home as of Sunday.

And yes, that's also the answer to your question.

well, you just don't care to care even less, so the phrase works fine in my book.

And I'm an Opera lover too... no need to go back to IE unless it actually loads pages faster than Opera.

IE7 is good but Firefox is still better due to the extensions and overall feature set.

I like how the zoom feature works. If someone links you to a tiny image, you don't have to save it and launch it in Picture Viewer. You can do that within the browser.
