IE9 Platform Preview Available

31 Mar 10

Late last year Microsoft revealed a glimpse of their Internet Explorer 9. This month they released what Microsoft calls a “Platform Preview”, so developers and users can test drive IE 9 for themselves.

Early reports are positive, including long overdue improved performance and standards support. In an increasingly competitive market, it looks like Microsoft are finally ‘getting it’, as IE General Manager Dean Hachamovitch posted: “We want the same markup to just work across different browsers.“ Good news.

What do you think?
