Yep, I had beta 2, which was a little buggy, then RC 1, which was much better. I’ll download this right now. I’ve been real impressed RC 1 so I should be happy with it. EDIT: Wow, 23KB/sec. Either someone is downloading massive porn at work today, or lots of people are downloading from microsoft. ---

they are all buggy… If they would let me run ie6 and ie7 i would download it. We write one stylesheet for our sites that is 100% W3C compliant and it works on safari, FF, etc… but we still have to add two additional stylesheets, one for IE6 hacks, and one for IE7 hacks… maybe in IE8 they will actually start getting close. ---

The only thing I don’t like is how it sets “Enable programmatic clipboard access” to “Prompt” every time I’ve updated. It’s an annoying feature that I have to keep going in and setting to “Enable”. ---
