nsane.forums Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Last week Microsoft unveiled their Internet Explorer 9 beta to the world, showing off the tremendous power behind the totally revamped web browser. Loaded with features and improvements, Internet Explorer 9 showed that Microsoft still knows how to come out on top, and put on a good show on while doing it too. Today, Microsoft announced in a press release, that they had over two million downloads of Internet Explorer 9, in just two days. Not only did Internet Explorer 9 surpass its predecessor, which had 1.3 million downloads over the course of a five-day period, but it even beat the Firefox 4 beta downloads, which managed to achieve just over 100,000 in a single day. However, Internet Explorer 9 did not beat spreadfirefox day, a special event held by Mozilla back in 2008 when they launched Firefox 3, managing to have over 8 million downloads in a single day, earning the a place in the Guinness World Records. Furthermore, Microsoft mentioned that they had over 9 million visits and 26 million pages views on the Beauty of the Web website since it's launch last Wednesday. Don't forget to checkout our very own benchmark of Internet Explorer 9 beta against Chrome, Safari, Opera and Firefox.

Administrator DKT27 Posted September 21, 2010 Administrator Share Posted September 21, 2010 Today I benchmarked 64bit version if IE9 Beta, and guess what, it performs even more badly than the 32bit one. I can easily see the benchmark's graphics performance here. Chrome outperforms all and IE is the worst. Can't understand where it beats others in graphics. :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32krazor23 Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 ^haha....yeah I don't know what Microsoft is thinking....way too little too late. IE9 is only a slight improvement over IE8 which is almost 2 years old and in my opinion, outdated when it was released. I'm a long term Firefox user, love my add ons, and never thought I would switch. But ever since Chrome 6 the speed difference is just undeniable. Now I'm using Chrome 7 dev and the different between Firefox beta 7 nightly is night and day. As for the add ons, most all the add ons I liked in Firefox are now available in Chrome. They might have a different name but my gmail checker, adblock, etc. are all there.Sorry for rambling....here are my benchmarks haha:(Using the latest nightly build of FF4 b7 and IE9 64bit beta on my new i7 860 @ 2.8Ghz PC): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
