I wish they would difine "cleaner look" better. I mean, does that mean smoother edges, different colors, what? (like i care, firefox FTW)

Mainly the toolbar is less cluttered. I didn't use it long though, seemed slow to me plus there is a couple of security holes already. Nothing major, but enough to make me not use it.
Oh it also has tabbed browsing...

I would wait til they patched the 2 flaws, I'm guessing they will do so next Tuesday, since that is normally when they release updates.
Honestly if your using Firefox and are happy with that, just stick with it. Just my opinion.

I was forced to install it on one of my systems thanks to it being a high-priority update (thanks alot Cisco CAA 
) and while it seems to be slightly faster than IE6... my god this is an ugly browser. Finding a skin for it has been impossible, I hate having the search bar at the top (FILE GOES THERE #$$%##!), and they use the retarded favorites stars. Oh, and this:
..It's like someone showed them a glimpse of firefox and camino, handed them a bottle of whiskey, and said "go code now".
The only good parts about it is that it imported my FF plugins easily, and my custom "Micro$haft Internet Exploiter" title stayed. It does seem to run CSS stuff a heck of alot better at least.

Surely you jest! That's a code base that only a drunken monkey bludgeoned with a rather hefty typewriter could love.

I would recomend it to anyone as it probably patches more than it opens. IE6 is terrible.

i really do not like the interface that it has. but then again, i suppose that i am going to have to get used to it... if you have seen office 2007 compared to office 2003 then you know what i am talking about. the layout of all of the menus is totally different. it most definitely threw me for a loop the first time that i used it.

You get used to it pretty fast. It is awkward to go back to IE6 once you are use to 7. (Btw ALT brings up the File Edit stuff).
