    Default IE10 on Win7

    Might be a bit late, most people may already know but Internet Explorer 10 is out for Windows 7. I think it's proper lush, but doesn't have features like Chrome has (syncing to other devices and whatnot). Still, it's an improvement on IE9. If you haven't downloaded it already, it's in your Windows Updates, you probs need to manually install it like I just had to today. Just found a problem actually, it won't let me start a new paragraph by pressing enter hahahhaha oh dear!

    Didn't exactly sell the product, did you Fry?

    It's still only going to be the ultimate browser for downloading another browser. But every little helps for those who couldn't care less about what they use.

    Sounds like IE 10 isn't correctly interpreting Habbox's WYSIWYG editor.

    I checked it out on VMware and I'm not convinced, personally I still think IE is a sinking ship.

    Well I'm a scouser, we're not renowned for selling things are we?

    It's a step in the right direction for the basic user who refers to Internet Explorer as just "The Internet" and when it isn't working the internet is down. It's not so much for power users who'll just use the likes of Chrome & Firefox, but if they can get device sync going through all windows devices (if they haven't already mind you), that'd be a good feature to push it to those types of users.

    Fair point

    Completely agreed though, it would be a good update for those casual internet users who do not particularly care about what they use. As long as they can access their emails, banking account and online stores, they'll be pleased. Sync would be good, Windows Phone and those who access different computers may want to have all their emails, bookmarks, contacts and history on all of their devices - it works reasonably well with Google and Chrome. Outlook seems to be going in that direction.

    I love it with Google Chrome, syncs with my HP Touchpad, iPhone & PC plus any PC I log into, it's almost instant to download all your bookmarks and information. ^_^

    Only problem with IE10 though, it's getting users to actually install the bloody thing plus it's not compatible with Vista or XP, something that less computer focused companies would actually use... which is unfortunate really.
