    I got hold of it about 10 minutes after the 'official' launch, dutifully extracted the installer - actually closed other applications and saved my data, it imported my bookmarks, and went ahead and installed itself, for some reason requiring a total restart of my system.
    It opened back up, and in the 10 minutes it sat there whilst I was on the phone it managed to crash and need restarting. Yes, I did want to let Microsoft know about the problem.
    I played with it and it seemed fine enough, though on XP here I didn't like the screen-font smoothing which I always think looks like someones put a lace net over the screen. I just like pixellated fonts I guess. It just looks like ie tho :/ give me some skins !
