Notice that IE7 has basically no meaningful statistics at all. - Voyagerfan5761

“I have again rekindled my hate for Suckernet Exploder. Internet Explorer is not only broken; it's broken in different ways in each version.”

"WTF? THIS IS SO SIMPLE TO DO IN FIREFOX! Why in the world is everything so hard in Internet Explorer? How do people surf the Internet like this?"

Make PNG transparency work in Internet Explorer. Seriously cool.

This kind of crap is unnecessary in IE7, right? Please say yes. - Voyagerfan5761

Yes. Took them long enough, but yes. - Cyvros/fyc

Less-compatible CSS and JS parsers? - Voyagerfan5761

Besides, why are you asking about IE9 already? IE8 is barely known yet. I'm just crossing my fingers that Microsoft will support Web standards completely by IE100 (c. 2108). :P - Voyagerfan5761

I think Microsoft is going to change as open source alternatives become more and more popular. It might be possible that IE 9 will have some tricks up it's sleeve. - possible248

Every feature of Firefox 4. - Cyvros/fyc

@fyc: Every feature of Firefox 4 with 20 performance bugs and three ways to completely bork your computer and force a reboot. Each. :P - Voyagerfan5761

@Voyagerfan: Precisely. Oh, and it'll also lack some key feature. Or have a MySpace-esque themes directory. - Cyvros/fyc

MySpace-esque? God, I hope not. :P - Voyagerfan5761

I'm really optimistic about IE 9, but I don't think that people will want to upgrade. - possible248

Well, people seem to like IE7 now. I mean, IE7 has the majority of IE pageviews on sites I check. - Voyagerfan5761

While people like IE 7, I'm not sure if they can use the features. Some IE 7 users that I've seen appear to be oblivious to tabs. - possible248

“Which do you think is better: IE5, IE6, or IE7? (If you want to vote for an earlier version, just do it. ;-)”

It would have to be between IE 6 and IE 7. It's tough as I really like Firefox better than either of them, but IE 7 has tabs, but I also had a really horrific bug with it where it forced me to reboot. Canceling the process was futile. - possible248

IE6, but only because of customisable toolbars. It was an absolute arse otherwise. IE7, however, has the advantage of such actually important things as PNG transparency and better standards compatibility. - Cyvros/fyc

Well hey, I like Firefox better than IE too, but someone had to ask the question. After all, this is a room for talking about Internet Explorer (sorry, Suckernet Exploder), right? - Voyagerfan5761
