Beta-testing Internet Explorer 7. Here are some screenshots and observations I’ve made so far.

• Nice tabs. A lot like Firefox. Especially useful is the Quick Tabs feature (Ctrl+Q). Think of it as Expose for all your open tabs (see screenshots 2 and 4). This may be the primary feature as far as I’m concerned.

• The layout is a lot more rounded – likely to make it look more seamless with Web 2.0/Ajax page designs.

• Built-in RSS reader but in my build this feature is still very buggy.

• Pages seem to load faster than in Firefox but this may be anecdotal.
