I’ve been playing with the beta release of IE 7 for the last couple of weeks on and off (ie. on those rare occasions that I bother booting into windows outside office hours)
It was due to its stupidity that I ended up posting the last entry twice!
What can I say about it?
Not a whole lot I’m afraid
The tabbed browsing is a nice addition, but as a Firefox user leaves me completely nonplussed.
The positioning of buttons etc seems to fly in the face of logic.
Why on earth did they decide to put all the “normal” buttons on the right?
And why do I get this incredible sense of deja vu?
Of course the anti-phishing feature is going to attract a certain amount of media attention, but I just found it annoying and disabled it. Why? Well most phishing sites are transmitted / publicised via email, so if you block them there you won’t have any problems, will you?

It’s difficult to get the impression of toolbar those icons belonging to a particular Set. Do you feel the interface sits well or is it over-designed?

Peter – I think the interface is terrible.
