WSJ thinks IE8 could be a contender

IE launches today - I hadn't realized.  MS hasn't made a browser I cared about beyond cross browser testing for a few years now.  But after reading what Walter S. Mossberg of the WSJ has to say, I will be checking it out.

Bottom Line
Internet Explorer 8 is a well-done advance on an important product used by most people to surf the Web. If it were faster, I would say it was the best browser currently available for Windows. But even so, it will be an improvement for current Internet Explorer users, and might even tempt some folks to switch.
