So, what do you guys think? I've got it as well. I think MS has barrowed some of FF, Chrome and other browers GUI look. So far I like it.

Now that I have IE9 installed, I was wondering how the Peacekeeper Benchmarks would score IE9.

I would say that IE9 has come along way from IE8. IE9 seems to have passed Firefox 3.6. However Firefox has a Beta version out also and has increased in performance as well.

Here are my Peacekeeper Benchmark scores for the three browsers I am currently using:



Looks like Opera is doing some serious butt kicking here!

IE9 is fast and I like it but until they develop addons such as Linky that I use religiously in FF it will not be my default.

I like the speed of IE9, but I would have really liked to have seen an inbuilt spell checker in the style of the Chrome/FF ones.

Does IE9 have support for third party addons? Particularly Greasemonkey.

It allows you to click directly on links within a post to open them. Somewhat like parsing links.

Text Link is another one I use.
