Has anyone installed IE 8 yet? is it much different from IE 7 with all the upgrades? How much will it mess me up?

Sorry- It comes with Win7, but the first thing I did after the install was to install Firefox.

IE 8 to me is "better" than IE 7 (forced to use for work). I use FireFox, but it's also becoming bloatware. I have issues of keeping FF open more than 2 days, it starts eating it's own memory and either crashes or stop allowing me to do certain things.

The only thing I use IE for is updates...

I use Firefox mainly but I have noticed that is has begun to lag quite alot.

I have tried Opera, not much there to get excited about...

Chrome seems to be faster than Firefox but it has issues with some pages, Mouse gets screwed up and I have to go back to FF...

Firefox is still my main Browser... #ni-1

I have also not tried Safari (except on my iPhone), wonder if that'd be the way to go?
