Have you installed the new Microsoft Edge?

There is always a promise that 'this is the best and greatest browser'. The truth is the browsers so far have had problems which surfaced slowly. No matter what the bench mark tests, the final result was always disappointing. One classic problem in the browser that I had before the new edge was the UI.
You get the login page of a bank and you enter your credentials. Assume you mistyped the password and you refresh again to correct your mistake. The next page you get has the password's field disabled. The only was to get to your bank is open either your Chrome or Mozilla.  More often, you find yourself unable to cut and paste into the URL. I used to catalog the problems and finally gace up!

Anyway, I decide to install and use it. Here are a few screen shots of what you can do with it.

This the version presently installed.



Favorites, Extensions and Collections





Are collections different from bookmarks? if so, How? Retiring bookmarks?




IE browser had better times but it has been largely replaced (too small to show in PIE chart).
