Wow, parties for a browser. <sarcasm> Lets all celebrate IE8 Beta 2!!!!!! </sarcasm>
I don't know what people think will happen because of a new browser release, just more broken updates (doesn't matter what browser either, there will be bugs).

There's already a beta 2?!?!
Just a week or so ago i tried beta 1 to see what we had to look forward to in IE. Not surprisingly, about the only page it could display right was about:blank. Hopefully they fixed a few things in beta 2.
