Trying out IE8 RC1, it’s listed as incompatible with URL’s like microsoft.com, including Windows Update. Meanwhile IE8 updates are only available through Windows Update. And the uninstall doesn’t work in XP SP3 – I don’t get a “remove” button at all. You can’t get rid of it, and you can’t patch it. Thanks for completely breaking Windows, Microsoft. Wow, the incompetence is staggering. Fortunately Windows is becoming more and more of a bad memory every day. The kind you can eventually completely black out, with any luck…

Meanwhile, FF3 continues as the champion workhorse, and running Google Chrome in XP is like taking a Ferrari for a spin… “soon available” on linux… and don’t miss the geeky-great chrome cartoon
