Internet Explorer 7 ante portas?

Tuesday, February 15th, 2005 at 9:38 pm

After us whining and cursing the aged Internet Explorer 6, Microsoft seems to have plans to ship out Internet Explorer 7. Planned only for Windows XP2 users, and not backward compatible to win2k (how could it be without reusing the same engine?) it promises better security but so far there is no word as to the standards compliance of it. More information in Bill Gates’ Keynote delivered this morning. I won’t hold my breath and stay with my Firefox for the time being.
