Well, no spell check again. Guess this would hurt Office in some way? Just ran Futuremark on both this and Chrome on my machine. IE9 shows as IE7 scores 3092 pts, Chrome ver 9.0.597.4 scores 8742. html5test.com IE9 gets 116 vs Chrome 242.

@justmike I wouldn't compare any 'subjective' benchmarks -- not until HTML5 has settled down a bit, anyway.

The HTML5/Acid3 standards-compliance tests are a bit better, but again, with so few sites actually using more than a handful of HTML5/CSS3 features, it's not really a good metric.

The best thing is to give IE9 a go -- see if you like it or not, and see if it renders sites properly!
