Internet Explorer 7

I downloaded and install the latest build of Internet Explorer 7, which is beta 2. I can't say that I like is more, or even the same, as Firefox. I don't care for the fact that the normal Menu bar is missing, although I understand they did it to give you more room for web pages. One annoying thing is when I do a Control + T to open a new tab the Address bar doesn't receive focus so I can start typing the web address. You have to click on the Address bar, then type, then enter. I know, minor, but just something I'd expect. I submitted it to the IE7 team, should be interesting if they consider it. The other thing IE7 doesn't have is the ability to re-order the tabs, like Firefox does. Guess my opinion of it so far is "ok", I still prefer Firefox.
