Since I have a number of sites that I support using Dotnetnuke, I thought it was a good idea to try out IE7 on them now that it is officially released to the masses.
The install took about 15 minutes with the usual reboot included. I fired up the IE7 via the updated icon on the task bar (a bit of an ugly grey if you ask me) and I was taken to a site that asked that I confirm my settings.
Well, I tried to scroll and click a few things, but the system was a bit sluggish, so I checked out task manager and you guessed, IE was spinning at 100% CPU. Anyone for IE7 SP1...
So, I skipped the saving settings step as I assumed the MS site was swamped with other users installing as well. I guess MS should have bought a few more machines for this!
IE 7 looks nice with the tab interface, but the antiphishing icon looks like it is slowing site downloads down, I am sure it is the site that is slow, but I am sure MS will get flack for this.
I look forward to the serious reviews of IE7 and Firefox 2.0 (coming soon).
Yes this post was the first with IE7!
