    Its like Firefox comparing their latest version 7 with IE6.

  • I love how IE is the last in the water but trying to claim they have a better boat. Hows that market share holding up IE?

  • lol. stupid speedtest:))

    i bet the code for that page looks like this

    if(browser != IE10)

    {

    frame_limit = 10;

    }

  • You would think they would use a better screen recorder!

  • @LukeCalder1234 well this isn't directly from microsoft its from engadget so it might not be microsofts fault i dont know people complain so much about windows os when its the most used and most reliable operating system to date and everything is designed for it

  • @alvarg

    Well I wasn't aiming that comment at Microsoft. In fact I really like Microsoft but tbh I would rather use Chrome than Internet Explorer but who cares.

    I do think that engadget should use a good screen recorder because the quality is poor.

    And for the matter of fact I am using Windows 7 now and think it's great and believe it or not I EVEN have a Windows Phone but I do wish that they would hurry up and bring Skype to the device.

  • "That's the difference between FULL and PARTIAL hardware acceleration." Yeah, and it only took Internet Explorer HOW LONG to catch up to web standards?

  • So I can get my 250 fish swimming now all day. Cool, that's what I've always wanted to use my browser for.

  • @WWEPRESENTSRAW Paragraph lol gay pathetic XD

  • @WWEPRESENTSRAW You're retarded lol. You'd think for such a prick you'd be good at this by now. Guess not XD

  • @WWEPRESENTSRAW So now words AND paragraphs are pathetic. You really ran out of clever things to say huh kid? XD

  • IE: WOOW! I can do gradients now! Guys! Guys?

  • @WWEPRESENTSRAW hahaha, you're just so shit XD ahhaha

  • I use to use Internet explorer, until I took an arrow to the knee

  • @CustomMapCinema fuck you and your arrow -> knee jokes -.-

  • @TheSarcasticburger sorry sir "miss recognition".

  • i think ie9 was a great leap from ancient to actualy better than the competition. BUt i hope they continue the progess and not limp dick put out another version.

  • So IE10 is slightly better than Chrome 11 and Firefox 4. Well done Microsoft, for living in the past.

  • IE will always be a shit!

  • crap i use ie 9

  • Comparing the latest browser (ie 10) to an outdated browser (FF4, CH11) is stupid and unfair.

  • firefox 4 ???? firefox 8 or 7

  • Firefox is the Best

  • ie sucks! I'm an html develloper and everything is differents then the convention...

  • does anyone here use IE???

  • try movie uploads and flash player your slow give us this why adobie why not you msn is slow google never resets why does msn i have boot stop the jokes flash player is top on this list

  • msn is slow google never resets why does msn i have proff on my mac and pc

  • IE just should not exists! (a web developer)

  • Comment removed

  • with chrome 15 I have 60 fps constant

  • One shit!

  • This is a terrible browser and it starts at Internet explorer 9 already, I fix Pc's and after installing windows 7 , after the update when i at also installed IE9 , it's impossible for me to download CHROME..just try it ..its blocked by some black screen that wont let you dl Chrome..How is that..is MS alought to treat the people like sheeps?

  • @channel48

    you may have some other issue if you can't install Chrome. I am writing this reply using Chrome on W7 SP1

  • @channel48 You may have some other issue if you can't download Chrome. I am writing this reply using Chrome which was dowloaded through IE9 on W7 SP1

  • let's take a look at a video with a guy constantly smacking his gums together. stop it with the mouth noise, you heavy breather!! i would have happily watched this poor quality, biased video but i suddenly remembered i don't have to sit and listen to your tongue flapping!!

  • Chrome FTW.

  • go MS

  • am I proud of ms for taking the good stuff from chrome and applying that " common sense" of performance and simplicity to ie9? OF COURSE..nothing wrong with adopting simple good ideas for competitor within reason. However, my previous comment 20 seconds ago still stands

  • until IE can have " webmail ad blocker, ad blocker, smooth scroll,iReader, youtube auto hd, keep my opt outs, top scroll button extensions...sorry..it's only on my pc as a BACKUP browser incase chrome ever has issues...which well NEVER happens lol.

  • fire fox the best

  • Internet Explorer 9 is ok, but not great. Yes it may be fast, but still the bugs are overwhelming for me. Mainly the "Close tab, stops responding" bug.

  • Haha, on HTML5, change the speed to 1/2 Speed LOL

  • i will update but i still using firefox

  • Comment removed

  • Fuck you Internet Explorer

  • its same as explorer9 i hav already

    but firefox isnt 4

    

  • Internet Explorer STILL is a knock off of Firefox.

  • @deathsminion25 Joke? IE was out before Firefox.

  • @iGarthi Firefox was originally NetScape, IE came about as a knock off of NetScape. Microsoft, the makers of IE, decided to provide IE for free download due to their inability to develop professional software that could had been sold at the current market price of browsers. When this happened NetScape lost a large portion of their market share leading directly to NetScape changing its name to Firefox and providing their browser for free download. Your ignorance is not a good joke.

  • @deathsminion25 No, Netscape was code named Mozilla, it has nothing to do with Firefox or the Mozilla company, look it up.

  • @deathsminion25 Additionally, the first Internet Explorer came out in 1995, which was based off of the trident engine, instead of Netscapes Gecko, though Netscape did ultimately create the Mozilla Foundation through the Mozilla Organization, firefox itself was not released so therefore IE could not be a knock off of it. If anything, Firefox is a knockoff of Netscape, which is true and intended since it is also based off of the Gecko rendering engine, and the original source code from Netscape.

  • @deathsminion25 Internet Explorer is not a knock-off of Netscape Navigator, it was a true competitor at the time, as it was based from Trident Engine. The people who made Netscape were making the browser available for all the majour platforms, but Microsoft wanted their own browser for their operating system. Originally Microsoft Internet Explorer was about $24.95, I'll have to check the disc I bought a while ago, and the reason it was free was because other people were offering their's for free

  • @TheWindowsChannel You just want to justify spending $24.95 for a browser that is not stable.

  • @deathsminion25 Sorry, I suppose I should clarify. I bought a copy of it in the mid-nineties to install on my Windows NT system.

  • where do you get your wallpaper

  • The reason i switched from Firefox to Chrome was because i couldn't stand the way in FireFox you had to switch around tabs. Freaking irritating... now i don't want to punch my computer anymore :D i have to admit though chrome is a bit faster.

  • All I need is the acid 3 test number! If the score isn't 98/100 or higher please get out of the browser business Microsoft. You fail!

  • Comment removed

  • Hahahaha! Ie sucks and they know it! Just trying to explain to thick people who think ie is the best browser that it rocks when it actually SUCKS LOL!

  • @opTreadstone I used to agree with you, however, as soon as I got the Platform Preview . . . it was amazing. Speed was able to be compared to Mozilla Firefox 5 and even Google Chrome 10!

  • @TheWindowsChannel Google Chrome is on V14 now in Canary/Nightly. It is an unstable version but on Linux it is rock solid, never experiensed any bugs. So no reason to stay on a stable version12.

  • Please, invite me to watch on YouTube "IE Project being buried together with its dev team". That'd melt my heart.

  • @TwilightTriEdge To be frankly honest, all tests are usually rigged to show whats best about browser, Google is guilty of doing it also, there has never yet been a browser which beats it in its own v8 benchmarks. Microsoft will have made it so these use IE9 features more than Chrome or Firefox would. Really mis-leading but can you blame them? They really need all the help they can get.

  • @iJames93i Not necessarily, Fishtank is based off of html5, not specifically IE, Chrome's V8 benchmark however, is built for chrome.

  • @TwilightTriEdge IE9 is faster than Firefox and was faster than Chrome until Google updated it in Version 11 IIRC. Your right about the support for HTML5, but its mostly CSS that it lacks support in, and yes Chrome is way way way more secure as it runs sandboxed. I prefer the interface in IE9 compared to Firefox.

  • @motoXairsoft What'd you have against Firefox?

  • internet explorer 10 for Windows 8?!?!?!?!?! lol

  • @Eragon86micky Lol I thought that Windows 8 would have IE 9, because they just came out with it and they're already working on IE 10. 

  • Firefox and Chrome is the worst in terms of security. IE 9 beats it. It even blocks more malware then Chrome and Firefox. IE ftw.

  • firefox = portabilty + very extensible= cnt beat that, -1 for being slow and fat, still firefox rocks

    IE9 = advanced grpaig++

    chrome = general performance + minimal ui

  • I thought IE9 had this hardware acceleration feature already?..

  • They took away the only good thing about IE9 the "omnibar" a single bar that you can search and type URL's in the same box. IE10 is a step Backwards if you ask me.

  • @ti994apc In platform previews, the UI is mostly removed, this was the same way with the IE9 platform preview as well. So you should expect a much better UI for the release product.

  • I'm using IE9 on Windows 7 and i like it.

  • Me likes white backgrounds.. or black... not gay windows vista leftover glue-gay-breen bradient gackbrounds.. 8p

    are all microsoftians freetards?

  • Yes, IE 8 was the baddest thing EVER.

    BUT, IE 9 is better than Firefox 4 and Chrome 10, as every tests say.

    And IE 10 is better than IE 9 as we can see.

  • @oyousso Every Test? The premier test is the Acid3 test. IE9 only gets a 95. Chrome an Safari get 100 and FF gets a 98.

  • Too bad IE has security holes big enough to drive a big rig through

  • Everyone using Google Chrome or Firefox here are just trolls. You just brag about having the best browser, yet your fat arse will just sit there when it comes to benchmarking. Face the facts: IE is taking HUGE steps; overtaking Safari and Firefox.

  • @MadSupra354 And chrome. The only browser way better than IE9 is Opera. The only reason I keep Fx on my comp is for when Opera loads the page in 2.5 seconds and distorts it a bit.

  • @misha511 Opera and Chrome are overtaking IE 9 in Peacekeeper. The subscores are a little more to look at though.

  • OPERA!

    I use Opera + Ubuntu!!!!!

  • @lij8 Agreed

  • Die IE

  • Google for FireFox 4

  • That's great that ms is working on the back end, but pls work on the front end coz it lacks customization, which is one of the biggest killers when deciding which browser to use. It's got to be fast no doubt about that, which ie9 is but it's got to have some front end features for ppl as well which ie9 just doesn't have.

  • @codebean Oh & btw for those who think ie9 is only good for rendering fish, the advantage of that performance is that you can play games in your browser with a decent fps, try playing the masterofthewebgame in chrome it'll run like shit.

  • @codebean Fuck that shit. The last thing I want IE to become is Firefox. Firefox 4 is still shitty and bogged down with add-ons. It stills crashes too damn often. It still uses too much memory. It remembers passwords only for a while, then it forgets them. So keep all that crap off my IE.

  • internet explorer is for people who think that there are no other web browsers(idiots!!)

  • Funny how they avoid showing how Fx supports hardware acceleration: I get higher framerates in Firefox 4 than I egt with IE9 on my system :P

  • Nicolas Cage, is that you?

  • I will use TR the day they use GH in the JK with the add on JJ in the outer olymipic hemisphere, providing the YY is running the the background alond with CSBollocks

  • It's funny how people can get worked up about a browser.

    If you people are so proud of being chrome or FF users, why the fuck do you come look at previews of IE? More then that, why the fuck do you feel like making stupid comments? I like Mercedes but you don't see me trolling BMW vids, do you?

  • @ScientificBob I like BMWs, and if i knew what trolling was I'd probably have an poinion on that too. Merc are boring man, most of them. There too dead, especially from 1996 onwards. Get yourself a nice E39, you'll never go back..

  • Internet Explorer 10 will not support Windows Vista.

  • @SteelCity1981 How do you know that?

  • HOLY SHIT HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE???

    MICROSOFT'S BROWSER IS BETTER AT A TEST MADE BY MICROSOFT THAN BROWSERS THAT ARE NOT BY MICROSOFT???

    WHAT THE FUCK WHO WOULDA THUNK IT???

  • @BumbleBeest9000 don´t scream at us dude

  • Addons in FF are the greathes thread and security issues. I love IE9, the speed and hardware acceleration! IE9 is already great win for developers, but IE10 will be much greater win ;)

  • Comment removed

  • It could be the best browser by a longshot and i would still not use it.

  • @jnsnlssn Why not?

  • replace YOU found in youtube to MYPRIZE and then push enter

  • I am using IE 9 right now and I gotta say it does wonders. Faster than 8 and really sleek looking. Reason why I stopped browsing with GC is because I was getting strange bugs, e.g. logging out of Youtube automatically, unable to open the draft, spam and deteled folders in Yahoo mail.

  • Google still the best on any pc or mac

  • @lunaschannel The best and google? Wht u outta ur mind? Firefox 4 is faster and supports much more addons!

  • if IE was chrome i would use it :)

  • why do you people still bother with IE ?? out of curiosity ???

  • NAH MAYNE CHROEM EWL DAI

  • Who in hell would want 250 fish?

  • Google Chrome is the way. 

  • Dont try man

    Google on TOP always 

  • Yeah, but can it run Ad Block Plus?

  • BREAKING NEWS: IE10 implementing features Chrome and FIrefox supported 3 years ago.

  • Pretty impressive. Microsoft seems to be catching up with the competition after so many years of meh.

  • Have any of you guys thought that the site maybe detects which browser your using and makes the fish slower or faster depending on the browser? ;) Just a curious thought.

  • Damn I wish I could render that much fish.

  • .youtube.com/user/VynilTV?feat­ure=mhum

  • You can render more fish ROTFLMFAO!!!

    No but seriously, no AddOns= Sh*tty browser. As simple as that.

    It doesn´t matter how many fish can render.

  • Mozilla Firefox 4 (Y)

  • Microsoft, have you any excuse for not being able to render correctly this HTML5 website: cpcbox.com even on your latest IE10 preview?

  • I rather use Netscape than this.

  • Haha like anyone besides my grandma will ever use it.

  • google chrome ftw

  • Firefox is the best, IE Sucks!!!!

  • Mozilla firefox + No script + ADbloack plus = WIN

    Explorer will be always a virus sea

  • Wow, what a piece of shit.

  • I can kind of understand gamin console war between fanboys BUT internet program fanboys??? Seriously thats kind of nerdish no wait supa dupa nerdish get a life guys im no fanboy but ony use chrome and firefox

  • safari and firefox will always pwn chrome and ie

  • MS Internet Explorer 10? I haven't even started using IE-8.

    That's cause I'm using Mozilla Firefox :)

  • Nerd language..

  • I choose no spam, adware, or malware that everyone ALWAYS gets with IE over watching 500 fake fish swim in a bowl. Thanks for this video though it only proves that IE is worthless and why may I ask did you not show the fishies in Firefox....maybe because it renders it just like the spam filled IE browser....hmmm...no thanks Gates you can keep your fishy IE

  • @chums7832, actually IE8 is safer than firefox, but most people have been trained to believe otherwise. All you did was help make that point... He was showing off new rendering efficiency which is important not for doing fish, but any kind of graphics needed on the web. It could plot stock prices with multiple tickers and charts more efficiently or anything, duh.

  • @rfsent5 ...So glad you pointed out that it can do more than show fish, because any moron could see I was being sarcastic other than yourself...."IE 10 can show multiple stock tickers?" REALLY?! Well someone stop the world because Mr. Gates developed a browser that can now do something that a pager could do back in the early 90's. Do you really think we are all naive enough to believe that a browser that can show multiple streams of information is soooo innovative that we need it. Nice try

  • Mais ignorado que internet explorer pedindo para ser navegador parão (Y)

  • my question is how much Microsoft pay you for this shit!

    IE suck 4 EVER!

  • @uleih, not true.

  • IE fucking suck!

  • хуй поймешь

  • I don't see how they can compare it with the ffe beta. look at the top right of the browser *(Feedback)*

    I watched this with ffe 4 FULL

  • IE уже в слишком глубокой жо...аутсайде, неужто они выпустят браузер, который обставит хромы и файрфоксы?

  • lots of Chrome fanboys around here thats so stupid

  • Microsoft are making actually making improvements so why are so many people whining?

    I'd like to see Apple do better.

  • @hackstermatrix haha, thats impossible

  • You know, they'll have to try REALLY HARD to earn the trust to the IE series.

    By far it always have been an inferior browser. Well, Microsoft still has a long way ahead for most of it's products...

  • @fe328 Like what? Windows? Sales may be down in sales but compare it to Macs and there's still a huge gap. X-Box is doing well and so are all their software line-ups, Microsoft Office etc. The only reason I used Chrome was because it was light years faster than IE8, now IE9 is much, much faster than Chrome with more add-ons if you want it.

  • @FloOFy2 thats so true before IE9 i was using Chorme but now with IE9 i way faster and safer using IE9 rather than chrome

  • @Daviaz12 Dipshit.

  • @Daviaz12 yeah maybe u are right the point is well IE used to suck very much but also worked for me but i never used while i had chrome but IE9 is great change and people that loves google or mozzilla they cant say IE9 is a excellent explorer cause they just hate IE9 which is stupid well

  • Internet Explorer 10,

    You can render more fish.

  • @lsharir you (and the 6 others who thumbed u) clearly don't understand the purpose of the demonstration

  • @NoNiceNamesLeft but we do understand the purpose of trolling.

  • @lsharir Successful troll is successful.

    Join Memism Now.

  • This man's voice is driving me insane.

  • Funny, I haven't used IE in years.

  • wtf..ie9 just came out,ONE MONTH AGO,and they are already making plans for ie10??

    why not just update ie9??

  • Ja i tak wole opere

  • Haha he doesn't even compare it to firefox although it's right there in the bar. I'm staying with FF for now ^_^

  • @ZirconCode he is not compareing IE to FF because Chrome is the fastest web browser at the moment. If you want to make a point you always compare your product with the best. BTW... I don't really like IE nor Chrome. I am a FF user.

  • just trash
