Any way to "downgrade" to IE7 with Windows 7?

Title says it all. Possible? I have a few (minor) annoyances with IE8, and IE7 was flawless for me.

I can't imagine anything about IE7 you'd like that isn't featured in IE8. For me, the only thing IE7 has that IE8 doesn't is slowness.

How about Opera? Chrome? Safari?

I'd think there's something else you might like there.

Edit: Konqueror? I hear KDE's working to some degree in Windows now.

That's because right now, all of Windows 7 is Beta.

No, there's no way to run IE7 on Win7 short of using a Virtual PC.

However, it would be great to learn what annoyances you've encountered so that they can be fixed before shipping.

The version of IE8 included with Win7 is pre-IE8RC1. The next release of Win7 will include a post-RC1 build which fixes many issues.

thanks!

Another reason is that it's tabbed interface is absolutely unintuitive to a new user viewing a single website. My sister threw a fit yesterday because she had to ask me how to make a new tab (remember, we are moving away from menu bars and it was never a "File operation" in the first place). I understand the desire to save space when viewing only a single page, but that's reason to do it Google's way.

My primary annoyance with Google Chrome is the inability to properly tile horizontally with itself or other windows despite having the best way to manage browser tabs and windows in the UI. If I need to view them side-by-side, I should be able to drag the tab off to create a second window, which I can do, minimize the other windows I don't need to see, and then tile them (right-click the taskbar). I can't and it SERIOUSLY harms the usabulity of converting tabs and windows. Oh, I also don't like the glitchy text input/online forms, inabilty to easily run from the Run menu without customization and unsuitability as a portable app (thumbdrive). I love the way it saves your open windows and back-buffer (much better than IE*), does browser history options RIGHT, and makes better use of screen space with the tabbed titlebar and contextual overlaid status bar. They could fix the problems with title and status bar displays though (scrolling messages and such).

*IE doesn't get the back-buffer, only saves one window, and doesn't save anything in the event of a crash
