I’m sure a lot of you have downloaded the newly released Internet Explorer 9 from Microsoft and probably have decided to switch, stay or add it to your browser line-up.
IE9 has gotten all the bells and whistles it promises to bring but if you are coming from Firefox or Chrome, I would not say there’s anything new and significant that would make you switch over.
If you’re a heavy Chrome user, you’d probably notice that IE9 has adopted a lot of the great features of the browser (which is a good thing but somehow an admission that IE is still behind).
IE9 is definitely better… than IE8, that is. Too bad IE9 doesn’t work on a Mac, yet.
So what’s your verdict on Microsoft IE9?
Try also Firefox 4, its better and same as Chrome now.

This is the first IE browser that I fell in love with. I think the pinning sites feature is a smart idea for a browser. And while I’m having frequent crashes with Chrome lately, IE9 makes a great alternative. It’s still to early to tell if I will set it up as my default browser as Firefox 4 just came out and looks more promising.
i fell in love with it at first but fell out of it after using opera 11, mozilla FF
I could never go back to IE. Sure, I could use it for checking up the sites I am developing, but nothing can surpass my likeness for FF and Chrome.
But I am yet to test FF4. I have a couple of Mozilla addons and I am wondering if it would function just the same.
