The IE team at Microsoft has released the 2nd beta Internet Explorer 8. Contrary to the first beta, which was aimed at developers, this one one is aimed at normal people like you and me. The list of new features and changes is decent, all focused around three themes (marketing alert): "We focused our work around three themes: everyday browsing (the things that real people do all the time), safety (the term most people use for what we've called 'trustworthy' in previous posts), and the platform (the focus of Beta 1, how developers around the world will build the next billion web pages and the next waves of great services)." Go get it.

So, by how many pixels is IE 8 off for each of the tests linked by this page:
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/WG/wiki/Test_Suite_Overview
I think you might find that each and every one of this set of tests is an EPIC FAIL for IE.
100% USELESS.
... Just thought I'd try to introduce a bit of objectivity and balance into this discussion concerning a possible 1 pixel offest, here.
Then of course there is acid3 ...

Yet more EPIC FAILURE for IE.
Funny.
