[sdw2003] Microsoft warns of IE8 lock-in with XP SP3

[Tony Su]

:)
It also didn't take long for a really nasty bug to be found in Chrome 
http://securitytracker.com/alerts/2008/Sep/1020823.html

And, I noticed within the past few days Google upgraded Chrome's status
from Alpha to Beta...

Probably the same thing more or less applies to IE8, if you run alpha
and beta code you should expect problems... Although it's really
disheartening how many bugs exist for Production code as well.

Agreed.  This is why I stick with Firefox for 99% of my browsing.

Chrome is interesting because its lightning fast, but flash has been a
little buggy so far.
