Say goodbye to IE

The Spartan browser is still buggy, all of your favorite web sites along the top of the browser are half way covered up by the over all web page. Before they put away IE which I don't have a problem with personally, as long as you don't get any weird add ons that crash your browser IE ask.com or something like that.. , I use both chrome and IE. Spartan is still broken. So far I don't see the point and it seems kind of weird that MS is pushing the Halo universe so hard on there windows platform. Might seem sort of tacky to some people, then again the people who would think that, would probably have no idea where the names even originate from.
 
I finally got to spend some time with Spartan. I liked the general feel of it, but even if it weren't a bit buggy I wouldn't use it for my primary browser. until more features and configuration options are worked in anyway.

I don't think I will use it either. This day in age, browsers need extensions/add-ons in my book.

My thoughts as well. I'm hoping MS shows that they realize this before the final product is out in force...

That is true.. except in the corporate world (banking, finance, healthcare etc), nearly all of which rely on IE 8-9. Most all of which are in for a big surprise in 7 months when MS stops support for anything earlier than IE10.

That's a good point. I'm keeping an open mind about it myself. They're brought IE into the present day in a reasonably nice package, so hopefully a fully featured Spartan won't disappoint.

I don't. Another "E" browser, with a similar logo to Explorer. More differentiation would have been nice.

The logo being so similar has to be on purpose, come on!? I thought 50% of the idea of making a new browser was leaving behind the IE brand and lack of consumer trust.
 
IE11 is decent enough, but I cannot see myself switching from Firefox anytime soon.
 
So it's basically the same thing just different name. May as well just kept the name as all we see is an update :confused:
 
I don't know why shall people not like the IE as it is much compatible and safe browser so far i have tested with my browsing. Other browsers somehow sometime shall do crash or create a problem but with this browser i have never found any issues.

GTFO
 
Personally, I can't stand any of the new browsers. I don't care for Firefox. Chrome uses too much RAM and will usually won't load GIFs unless I restart the computer every few days. IE isn't customizable. I'd probably use IE if they still had the "favorites" button located on the left side where it should belong. It was very easy to add and access your favorites when it was there. I tried IE 11 for a few months. Even after that amount of time I still tried moving the cursor to the left to access it. It was aggravating.
