unclehobart New Member Aug 4, 2007 #1 Has IE7 had enough of its bugs steamed out enough to bother upgrading to it? I've been a holdout.
catocom Well-Known Member Aug 4, 2007 #2 i'm a holdout too. My mom's been using it for sometime now though, with no problems. Ya gotta get all the updates though. I'm not real big on the layout.

unclehobart New Member Aug 4, 2007 #3 The system reqs seem to read as if it will only work on XP or server 2003... so I may be stuck in the time warp of IE6.

unclehobart New Member Aug 5, 2007 #7 Internet Explorer 7 is not available for your operating system Typical Microsoft feature... feh.
Inkara1 Well-Known Member Aug 6, 2007 #12 That was back in the days of stable computing... well, stable as long as you had 8 megs of RAM. Trying to get by on 4 megs sucked balls.

catocom Well-Known Member Aug 8, 2007 #18 I'm on xp sp2 One thing I don't like is the level of OS integration
catocom Well-Known Member Aug 8, 2007 #19 Layout, integration, and one more thing I don't like... IE7 is way more sluggish opening.
Luis G <i><b>Problemator</b></i> Staff member Aug 8, 2007 #20 The OS integration started with IE4, it was somewhat reduced with IE6, but I think MS is back on the track of making the OS depend more and more on the browser.
