Internet Explorer 8 faster than Firefox 3.0.7?????

According to PCWorld Internet Explorer 8 is faster than Firefox 3.0.7 (which is the latest non-beta version of Firefox). PCWorld done a scientific test of Internet Explorer 8 (which I'm pretty sure is still in beta) versus an array of other browsers, the result was that IE8 beat out Firefox3 by less than a second onmost pages and by a second on one English-language Wikipedia page. This is good news for those of you who use IE as for me though I intend to stay with Firefox after all unlike IE I can customize my Firefox browser to fit my needs and personality, while Explorer is a cookie cutter one size fits all program which has been obsolete ever since it came out.

Internet Explorer has a light switch!

Windows 7 is the next windows operating system in development and is currently in beta testing. According to some reports, you may be able to turn Internet Explorer off, I am unsure what the exact definition of what it does exactly as the article only said that Internet Explorer could be turned off, wish they would have elaborated more.
