IE 9 Beta

@Derek and Lorien...it is very very probable that I have to up my computing skill level to truly appreciate IE 9's advanced features as more advanced users unabashedly gush about.

I have to admit...it does look gorgeous even at my intermediate level.

@Derek'''

I was and still am.

The Yahoo and MSN mail comparison is just to demonstrate their directions in upgrading. MSN might be BEAUTY oriented at the expense of ease of navigation while Yahoo is the opoosite.

OK, thought I missed something there.

Carry on..... There's a few ways to zoom was my point. ;)

Exactly my point. There are always several ways to do anything. Some easier than others. I prefer the easier, user friendlier features of IE 8...and Yahoo mail.
