Actually Firefox didn't invent tags. Opera did it before they did and I forget what browser actually "invented" them.... Those are cool screenshots. As much as I hate IE now, it used to be a damn good browser. I imagine 7 will be pretty nice since MS finally are getting off of their asses.I actually remember BPS PowerTools integrating tabbed browsing and chatting on AOL as early as 1997.
I am a Firefox and Opera users but must say that IE 7 has done a good job to copy them both. Only problem is is that IE 7 still doesn't have proper web standards support. My site still looks the same in IE 6 and 7. Doesn't matter how "pretty" they make it, people will still hate it when sites don't look right because IE can't process simple things like CSS.
why does every1 keep saying that Microsoft copied off of Firefox with the tabs, Don't you people realize that there has been Web browsers out for a very long time that offered tabs, other than firefox, but you's don't jump on them, you's only jump on IE7 because you's seem to hate Microsoft. Personally I hate Firefox because of the resources it takes up, along with Avant and Netscape. Microsoft may have flaws in a lot of areas, but you don't see anybody else really competing with them, now do you.

Soon you'll have junk sites offering M$ beta products. Hey hang on, isn't M$ a junk site?

BTW, I for one will find IE7 refreshing after wasting my memory on FF.

If you need an alternative site to get it from I found one since JCXP took it off:<a class="user" href="http://www.cybernetnews.com/?p=263">http://www.cybernetnews.com/?p=263</a>
