Microsoft loves changes. Unfortunately most of the time these changes are to products that function just fine rather than to the pieces of shit that actually need a revamping. As for Internet Explorer well, there was definitely a need for a change because i'm sure being known as a virus loving shit show is not the direction they want to continue going in. To make matter worse, during this time Firefox and Chrome have managed to kick the living shit out of it in every way and are coming back for seconds licking their lips. So in realizing a change was long overdue they finally have decided to give IE a complete overhaul. I was hesitantly curious and as soon as the beta was out I had to install it. Yes i know I'm a glutton for punishment. Shortly after the install I began to remember what MS did with Vista, Office, SharePoint, and countless other programs and I immediately cringed for what I had just done. Just as I had suspected, the experience was not good. I know beta's are supposed to have some bugs but Jesus Christ. I haven't seen this many crashes since Billy Joel took a liking to a little combo called Whiskey and his Corvette. The funniest part of it all is opening SharePoint with it seemed to upset it the most. You can't make this shit up. So I used Chrome to make any SharePoint edits until I uninstalled the shit show that is IE9 beta. The bottom line is it's a long long way from making the average internet junkie happy. In fact it effected my machine so poorly I think next time I get the funny idea to use and IE beta I will just have someone kick me in the nuts drop my PC down a flight of stairs. It would be less painful for me and my PC would act pretty much the same as it did with IE9beta installed. Well now that we all know what a cluster fuck piece of shit this software is, I have a few small observations. First off how did Microsoft get away with completely stealing the design of Google Chrome? No I don't mean "took some ideas from," or "got creative ideas from" or "was influenced by." Fuck that. It was like Google Chrome was jogging in Central Park just after dark, and Microsoft came up behind it, bend it over and raped the shit out of it without even a gratuitous reach-around. Complete steal. I know no one gives a shit what I think but bet your bottom dollar many others saw what a piece of trout grundle this software is as well. It's just disappointing that with all the money MS pays for marketing and software development, they can't come up with their own great idea for a browser after years of the same boring shit?
