Microsoft's IE10 for Windows 7: Worth another try?

By anyweb,

As I've noted in this blog several times over the past couple years, I have become a devoted Google Chrome user because Internet Explorer 9 on my Windows 7 PC is not up to snuff.
Yes, I have tried just about everything imaginable to fix this. I've disabled all add-ons. I've reinstalled the browser.

Heavy on pomp and light on substance, the presentation noneth
Microsoft's first stab at a tablet: Surface reviewed

By anyweb,

So Microsoft has gone and done it.
The company has sold operating systems for other companies' computers for more than 30 years. Sticking to the software and letting other people deal with the hardware side is what made Microsoft the multinational behemoth that dominated the computing landscape through the 1990s and much of the 2000s. MS-DOS; 16-bit Windows 1, 2, and 3; the hybrid Windows 95 family; and the 32-bit (and, later, 64-bit) Windows NT family that is still with us to this day:
