One good thing is that my igoogle bookmarks open in a tab instead of a window which is great for me.

People still use this shitty web browser? 
Still, it's one of the reasons why I'm still in business as people that do use IE tend to download all sorts of shit on their computers so I go out and fix them and cash in.

Not sure, I had the beta about 3 months ago and this is a bit different from that, not sure on the RC though.

It's not far off the RC, the UI is different from the Beta.
You've also clearly not even looked it Sam.

Clearly not John, as I've not used IE in some time now and have no interest in using it other than for when I'm doing a website for someone and I need to see what it looks like rendered in IE.

I use IE on the PC and Safari on the mac.
I only use Firefox if I wanna download flash videos.

I don't mind IE. As much as I prefer Chrome, it still has occasional issues with some websites, opening them in IE will work.
Firefox can suck my dick though

I agree with that, prefer Opera to Firefix, IE or Chrome for me.

I've been forced to use Firefox for the property bee add on. It's crap, absolutely no idea why everyone loves it so much.

I'm glad you lot agree. So many people trying to get me to use it when I find it makes up therendering itself which 9/10 times looks awful. I'm sure it's fixed now but the first time I logged into my Natwest online banking it looked like I had accessed the special needs banking for the blind site 
I only have it because of te ebay add on, plus I like the BMW theme I have on it  
I mainly use chrome, not used opera on a pc, enjoy it on my BB though

Firefox used to be the browser of choice if you knew what you were talking about. Now it's crappy and slow, just like IE. At least Firefox is a standards compliant browser, unlike IE. Despite MS constantly saying it's standards compliant you can't do something as simple as render an IFrame without breaking the W3C specifications.

Firefox is slow as fuck.
I've remembered another time I have to use it though, when I need to print off certain PDF files (like receipts from HMRC and congestion charging) as IE shows up a blank page

Is that your job? I could do with your number then mate!
Edit; Im getting my laptop back this weekend from the reapair (sp?) as it needed a new Hard-drive, so I said to them to put Win.7 on aswell (instead of Vista), what browser do you guys recommend to use. I'm not to keen on firefox (missus has that) and I had IE last time.
