Internet Explorer 9 RC will introduce “show tabs below address bar” option

Good I hate the current layout.

Internet Explorer 9 RC will introduce “show tabs below address bar” option

Now that's a good option. It can be a bit crowded with all on one bar.

With this change, IE 9 is fine for me. I'm still not too big of a fan of the "one" box for searching but Chrome has got me somewhat used to it. Let's see how IE 9 RC does performance wise because on some older machines I've tried it on, it's kind of clunky in its Beta stage.

I installed the Win7x64 SP1 and I think this IE9 is more stable, haven't had the BSD since. Still have a nagging problem where many times a link in a outlook 07 email won't open IE9, very frustrating.

The other thing I notice is scrolling thru webpages is choppy like being back on WinXp, just doesn't have the fluidity that the Win7 developers wrote articles about (forget the technical terms.)

I think I finally figured out the issue with the IE9x86, I believe superfetch must be on, with an SSD most turn it off. But it seems turning it back on has eliminated all the issues, hopefully this will be fixed in the RTM.

RC build (9.0.8073.6003) will include an “ActiveX filter” feature

Now that will be a nice security feature.

I'm pleased about the “Show tabs below address bar” option, and I can live with the "one box" set up for searching, but I am driven crazy by this recent obsession with aesthetics being more important than function! IE is not a piece of art, it's a vehicle to perform certain functions --- and I want the functions that I use often (and that are important to me) to be right on the screen. I don't want to have to go digging for them every time I need to use them. And if that's not how MS chooses to set up its "default" then fine --- but at least give users the OPTION to place these settings right on the screen if they choose to!

Installing this now, Pray it'll run on the thing I call my computer Hehehehehe

I will be catching up to you guys in February as my Grandfather will upgrade my whole machine Much higher RAM, new extra external HD so I hope this will run as smoothly as chrome does on this computer..wish me luck bout to reboot for the installation to complete

I think i will stay with IE8 for the time been and wait till IE9 is fully develope and finalise without the bugs..

Out of curiosity, ie9, what is it supposed to be, currently? Mine shows:



But, then, I rarely use it. I ask because I prefer to be up to date with the latest betas, development builds and such.
