QuoteActing on Feedback: IE9 Release Candidate Available for Download (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2011/02/10/acting-on-feedback-ie9-release-candidate-available-for-download.aspx)

We will automatically update IE9 beta users to the IE9 RC. After the final release, we will automatically update IE9 RC users to the final build.

This is pretty cool for those of us who like to try out the pre-release versions of browsers. I've been trialling IE9 on a virtual PC for quite some time, but this new announcement may inspire me to run this on my main machine. 

IE9 is an impressive browser. It is quicker and more responsive than FF or Chrome, and it is minimally styled so you're not overwhelmed with all of the toolbars and other MS junk.

I've been using it exclusively all day. Not bad. I may start another thread for that topic.
