Internet Explorer IE7 Beta

[DudeAsInCool]

Microsoft releases a real live beta of Internet Explorer 7, which is apparently a whole new ballgame from the previously-posted IE7 Preview.

Well, ok, not really - in terms of features, anyway. You’ve still got the tabbed browsing, built-in search box with Google (!) as the default, and Expose-like Quick Tabs. The difference with the beta is that Microsoft wants you to try it - even “people who usually shy away from beta software.” To prove it they’re offering free phone support for users in North America, Germany and Japan. Bold move, that. How long till a band of crazed Firefox zealots drunk-dials the help line, do you think? If any lifehackers put in a call, let us know. We’d love to know how it goes. IE7 Beta 2 is a free download, Windows XP SP 2 only.
