It looks good, I'd try it, but God that name is stuffe. Spartan was actually decent.

It is being built from the ground up. It runs incredibly well, espcially compared to IE.

And has very little HTML5 support too
It's missing some pretty essential audio codecs, I think the last test I had someone run on it showed that it doesn't even support playing wav files

It runs well. Still a lot of bugs and features to be sorted out in the current build, though.

None to speak of right now.

Hey, Zedrow, if you're going to post dumb things, do it here first.

The new features look neat, but I'm sure Chrome/Firefox/whatever browsers will catch up quick to stay competitive (then again I highly doubt people will suddenly flock away from their current browsers unless it's even better than it looks).

scenario: windows optimizes the crap out of it

In my opinion, I think the reason they changed it from "Spartan" was because people caught on to Microsoft trying to leech fame off of Halo again.

No idea if it's true or not, but that'd be my guess.
