Windows 10 Technical Preview - Spartan Browser

I updated to build 100074, which contains the new Project Spartan Browser (or Microsoft Edge as it's soon to be known), tried it out for a few minutes… then installed Chrome!


A short while later whilst doing further testing with Spartan (I felt I had to give it a go), it hung loading Microsoft's MSN page (oh the irony!) and made the entire system unresponsive, so much so that even Task Manager hung!


This is why it's not a good idea to run an evaluation version of Windows on your production PC's people! My version is running in a VM.
