Internet Explorer 8 beta 2

thanks, but i suggest that you wait for the final release

Beta's are released for a reason, for testing purposes and to report errors back to Microsoft. If everyone "Waited for the final release" then betas would be pointless. Im personally all for testing out betas and finding out if they are any good. So in my opinion that's a pretty pointless post to make. If people wanna try it then that's great, if they don't then that's cool.

I have not downloaded the beta release.
I have read other's who have and their experiences.
Seems from them, it is a stable product now, and microsoft says that there is just a little tweaking left to do before they release it in final form.

But yes, to make a post to not download is a bit pointless!

CompuSupport says it best.

Heck, there are products out there that seem to be in beta for ages and never come out, yet are downloaded and used every day.
Take Pligg for instance.

Well said iowadawg. One thing that has been in beta for what seems like an eternity is the Microsoft download center. I'm so bored of seeing the pop up very time I download from Microsoft.
