Internet Explorer 8 Beta 1 Released to Public

Here is the link:

It has an ‘Emulate IE7′ button which is neat. So now I have IE8 (with IE7 emulation), IE6 standalone, Firefox 2 and Opera 9 installed on my Windows box.

It’s about time for Microsoft to pay attention to standards. I wonder how long we have to support IE6/7 for, another 5 years?

Thanks for the link to the install. I was going to get it until I saw that you can emulate IE7.
