although, the web hasn’t warmed to the idea of tabbed pages yet – and there’s no option to force page links into a new tab, rather than a new window – though i think there’s a hotkey for it (Alt or Ctrl+Click) that works for every link.

anyone following me around here must think i’m an optimist: ive yet to post something positive about IE7, Windows Live messenger or Media Player 11 – all 3 are graphically nice but slow.

Definitely consumes a lot less processor usage than FF. Will join you on saying that IE7 is definitely worth it!
