About a year after the first beta (which was followed by another beta and a release candidate), Microsoft has announced the release of the final version of Internet Explorer 8, the company's newest browser. The focus of Internet Explorer 8 is better standards compliance, security, and making "common online tasks faster and easier".

IE 8 gets 20/100. http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/8122/acid3.png I haven't tried FF 3.1 beta 3 yet to see how compliant the bleeding-edge Gecko engine is but FF 3.0.7 gives me 71/100.
FF 3.1 beta 3 is only about 93/100.

It also still has a bug or two in tracemonkey. This latter point is apparently the hold-up that is still keeping it in beta.
