Internet Explorer 8 to launch by the end of ‘08

A Microsoft blogger, Mary Jo Foley has “spilt-the-beans” as hip kids say, about the deadline for the finished product that is Eye-EEEEE-Eight. It’s kinda funny actually… Internet Explorer Eight… Two-Thousand-and-Eight… okay no, I just suck.

Quick update from Microsoft’s Financial Analyst Meeting (FAM): Microsoft Senior Vice President of Online Services and Windows, Bill Veghte, just told attendees that Microsoft will release the final version of Internet Explorer (IE) 8 to the Web “later this year.”

The first beta of IE8 was released in March which Microsoft said to be primarily focused on web developers and designers. They say that the next beta (beta 2 for those who couldn’t tell that “first” means “1″) will be aimed towards the end-user. End-User? Are our computers going to come alive and stab claws through our livers? What are you planning, Microsoft?
