Key features by Adrian Kingsley-Hughes

•Install was quick, easy and painless.
•IE8 looks an awful lot like IE7, just with a few tweaks.
•Speed-wise IE8 feels snappier than IE7 … might be an illusion.
•If features such as Web Slices are going to take off, Microsoft needs to get web developers on board … fast.
•The redesigned address bar might help curb phishing attacks by making the domain you’re visiting easier to spot.
•Thanks to all the Activities stuff, the right-click is awfully busy.
•I’m seeing a lot of minor site breakages in IE8 (running in IE7 emulation mode unbreaks the sites).
•IE8 recovers from unexpected shutdowns very well.
