AOL puts version 8.0 to the test | |
|
||
| Time: 13:36 EST/18:36 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

The preview version, offered to beta testers this week, is not a drastic shift in appearance and use from AOL 7.0. Since the new version is in beta, AOL 8.0 will likely undergo more changes and additions as the fall release date draws closer. "We just began beta testing," said AOL spokeswoman Jane Lennon. "The current beta only includes a few new features." The AOL 8.0 beta comes bundled with Microsoft's Internet Explorer Web browser. Over the past year, AOL has waded further away from using IE as the default browser in its various online services and has warmed up to its Netscape Communications subsidiary instead. | ||

Why is AOL using IE in AOL 8 beta when they switched AOL 7 and Compuserve over to Gecko? Not to mention the fact that Mozilla is now at a 1.0 state. Don't they want to get any actual testing done with the Gecko code? Just can't resist killing Netscape further even though they are suing MS over it.
I don't really care. I just find these things funny, hypocritical, and increasingly pathetic. :-p |

How does AOL rule?
Local internet providers can provide better service for half the price in many cases. |

n4cer - Yeah... My reaction is HUH? I thought AOL was moving to Netscape.
