Internet Revolution - 2.3 Million downloads in 24 hours-IE9

Can anybody believe this ? More than 25 downloads per second, more than 250 downloads for every 9 seconds.That is Microsoft.

Internet Explorer, once derided as the laggard among browsers, seems to have gotten a rocket-fuel injection with the release of Internet Explorer 9. It's so fast that one has to wonder.

The release via Windows Update should begin on the 21st of March, with this being the day before the release of the final version of Firefox 4. It will also be interesting to see the download figures recorded by the multiplatform Firefox browser when it is made available. 

The world record remains in memories with Firefox 3.0 recording 8 002 530 downloads between the 17th and 18th of June 2008.
Coming to to the speed , performance etc,no doubt its ultimate.
