According to MezzoBlue’s Dave Shea IE7 is really, honestly going to fix (almost) all of those things we’ve been whining and complaining about for, well, years now. Some of the mouth-wateringly acceptable features IE7 will now finally be capable of, out of the box: PNG’s alpha-channel transparency (thank fucking god), fixed positioning, and the :hover pseudo-class now works on (supposedly) any element!
IE7 beta is available, and the rendering engine is, basically, as finished as it’s likely to get; any changes from this point out will have to do more with bug fixes and security. I’m going to download it and see it for myself.
And if you do not upgrade on the day it is released, you’re a monkey’s arse and i will – mark my words – no longer be making web sites with your lousy browser experience in mind.
