Internet Explorer for years does not enjoy the best reputation. Gripes at his heaviness, vulnerability or lack of compliance with the standards. Microsoft has released just a browser, which in the assumptions is to change this state. Stable version of Internet Explorer 9 is already available for download.
But let’s say it out loud, for me biggest drawback IE9 is that it works only with Windows Vista and 7, but not Windows XP, which is present on the “too many” computers, the same …. while it does not change, do not count on miracles. So, if your client has an old operating system does not benefit from the opportunities latest edition of Internet Explorer 9 (windows.microsoft.com/en-US/internet-explorer/products/ie/home).
As said Patrick Góralowski of Microsoft, responsible for the development platform Internet Explorer 9 in Poland, the issue of version “truncated” only for Windows XP would not be fair to the loyal users of Windows. In this way, Microsoft wants to also propose migration to Windows 7, though not noticing that many users do not feel such a need.
See what IE9 has to offer for you:
- New JavaScript engine that loads pages faster and improves overall performance
- Full hardware acceleration for text, graphics, and video to provide a rich web experience
- Hardware-accelerated HTML5 for rich web experiences, etc.
