Overall Theme

Internet Explorer 9 is out now and there has been a lot of discussion on what it has to offer. Join us in throughout April as we take you through the ins and outs of IE9 as it relates to you the IT Professional and how it will impact the enterprise. We will have 4 sessions in all covering what’s new, security, deployment and application compatibility.

Session 1

Title: TechNet Live! Australia - Internet Explorer 9 – New Features

Abstract: In this session we discuss how IE9 is fast, clean and the most trusted browser on the market today. We’ll take you through the changes since IE8 and the speed improvements we’ve made and how we now take advantage of the GPU in your computer instead of just the CPU! We’ll then take you through the changes to the interface including the integration with Windows 7. Finally we’ll discuss security feature changes in IE9. There will be demo’s throughout this session showing each of the major new feature changes.
