IE8的命名规则并不奇怪,微软总经理Dean Hachamovitch称其继承了一贯的命名传统,更符合微软的战略眼光.他还透露一些包括下一代浏览器的新特性信息将在不久后发布.
来自IE Blog的消息称IE8的定名争议了许久,其中还包含以下有趣的候选:
IE 7+1
IE VIII
IE 1000 (think binary)
IE Eight!
iIE
IE for Web 2.0 (Service Pack 2)
IE Desktop Online Web Browser Live Professional Ultimate Edition for the Internet (the marketing team really pushed for this one ;-)
Ie2.079 (we might still use this for the Math Major Edition)
