Slashdot informs us that the betas for Vista and IE7 are available today… to MSDN subscribers. We are not, but we do receive betas with our TechNet subscription (which I have generally found to be Not Very Useful, otherwise). As soon as I get a chance, I’ll probably try out IE7; I’m hoping to be impressed. Not because I want to use it, but because I want to quit having to develop web pages trying to style them for a smaller common subset of standards… Hopefully IE7 will handle CSS much better.
VistaTech reports that the Windows Update page does not work with IE7. I know this is beta software, but you have to admit; that’s a pretty funny bug.
Paul Thurrott has a reasonably balanced review (reasonably considering that he runs a “Supersite for Windows”) of Vista here.
