I'm thinking about it, but I rather like chrome on my w7 boxes, plus I'm tiring of trying to keep up with new cr@p and especially of early releases.

Opera all the way at home and Iron at work for non work related surfing.

Won't touch IE if I can avoid it.

i installed the beta in the end in a virtual machine, XP isn't supported. Too unstable but at least crack tracker seems to work fine with it (and xplorer2)

I'm using IE9 on one machine where for some reason I began having trouble with Google Maps. No complaints except for some poor UI decisions, like the Favorites button is moved to the far right but the panel still opens on the left...

They both worked fine for me.  Better than some other sites where I had to invoke Compatibility View to get results.

I didn't notice the menu tabs; but when I tried those today, they work as well.
