(This is what Mozilla did with Netscare 4.x, and they got perfect "Gecko" engine). AFAIK, Microsoft rewrote (replaced with NEW code, not just fixed) some parts of IE6 engine. How much percents of IE engine was changed for v7.0? It looks like 3-5%. Not so much. Could be much more, if they hadn't implement tabbed browsing, PNG transparency, and RSS support. Maybe IE 8.0 will be much bigger step forward? I mean standards compliance. IE needs a complete engine rewrite. (This is what Mozilla did with Netscare 4.x, and they got perfect “Gecko” engine).

Last I heard Microsoft is trying to get on a one-year release schedule for Internet Explorer again, so next fall we should see Internet Explorer 8.

Interesting. If they do, then IE 8.0 will be for Windows Vista only. All others will use Firefox :) But if they don't, then Firefox3, Firefox4, Firefox5, ... will beat IE7 off the scene. Wrong browser must die :) BTW, is it truth, that Microsoft plans to start working on IE 8.0 very soon?
