I had it for a few hours, and it kept crashing.  I think the beta of IE should only be for experienced software testers.  I had to use system restore to get the old IE back.  I'm using the Google browser with no problems.  Google's beta products seem like finished products.  I notice that Gmail and Google Calendar have been betas for months or years now, and I'm totally dependent on those products, and have never had a problem with either one.
