Has anyone tried IE8? What do you guys think of it?
IMO you are a naughty boy, IE is like a swear word around here, personally i will only use FF or one its decendants, but i will say this IE has had to sort its act out because of FF, i wont let myself use IE because of the nightmare of all the previous versions of IE, but if you like / use IE thats fine cos its all about choice, LOL
 
IE8 has better support for web standards, which is basically a good thing. IE is the most used web browser, and websites are in most cases designed for IE only. But because it has better support for web standards, it's gonna be less likely in the future that websites only work with one browser.

I haven't been able to test IE8, because I don't have a computer with Windows on it :)

Security, bugs, lot of reasons.
And I also don't use it because of that :D

Version 5.2.3 was the last version of IE for Mac OS. It has been discontinued after that.
what about Virtualbox ?, but then you'd need Win in a VM. . . . . i'll keep thinking!

IE8 actually doesn't seem all that bad to me. On one of my virtual machines I upgraded to 8 and doesn't seem too buggy.
