After a quick test of IE9 Beta I would say that I can't wait till they release IE9 without the bugs. I like that they have slimmed it down to look more sleek and offer more internet area to view, very similar to Google Chrome. I personally finally started utilizing the Favorites toolbar in IE8 so seeing it gone by default was a bit of a bummer but I did find that after the tab I could right click and set it to display along with my trusty menu bar options.

I didn't see where you could freely move them from left to right or stack as desired anymore though. IE9 did require a lengthy install time and a reboot of my PC but seemed like it did load websites faster during navigation.

As a Webmaster I did really like the easy to set developer tools with all sorts of neat features to help guys in my industry with design information, ranking, image sizes, image paths and so much more. I guarantee this feature will be used to death by me.

I did have to uninstall it on my main work machine do to some bugs with not being able to highlight or right click select anything when creating posts in wordpress. While navigating my wordpress administrative account try to do much of anything was painfully slow in reaction and errored our consistently.

There are quit a few new improvements that once ironed out will be a nice release and if you are a novice user you will be able to almost seemlessly enjoy the bells and whistles  that are working well in the beta version.

If you have downloaded the Beta of IE9 and tried it out for yourself please let us know what you think.
