The whole web development world is sitting on the edge of their seats salivating. Some, such as myself, hope to be able to praise you for a job well done and others can't wait to find out what's still broken and bash you.

Good luck,

Drew

That's ie6/7 vpcs - not ie8 vpcs, right?

IE: The standart Browser for OUR standarts of our WEB (yes we buyed one)

Wehre can we get our hand on the VPC?

Yes, how does one get the VPC's?

how does one get the VPC?

Pete, a clarification. Looks like Add/Remove programs has been disabled by the administrator in the ie6 vpc? Purposeful?

Yes sir! Give us the VPC's :-D

You can download a copy of Virtual PC 2007 for free from the official Microsoft website.

You have to be the WORST product manager, ever. Internet Explorer is dead software, the only reason it has such a market share is because Microsoft forces it down peoples' throats by integrating it with Windows. You can't even defend your own product. Pathetic.

Why are the VPC's in wrapped up in an .exe?? I develop on a Mac and would love to be able to test IE6/IE7. I have VPC for OSX. Why don't you guys just put the virtual disk images in a neutral format, instead of putting it inside a self-extracting executable? It seems like a pointless barrier set up that is easily removed.

Pete, I know how to obtain VPC, I should have been more specific. How can I get IE8 VPC, as in Xp\Vista+IE8 in a VPC?

Thanks! Can't wait!
