It has been a while since I had IE7 so I do not know all of the changes that came with IE8. Maybe you could do a search and find out what the upgrades were and see if it is worth the upgrade.

Personally, I try to keep up with the latest levels because of the changes and improved security enhancements. If you skip a release, sometimes the changes you missed are embedded in the new release and it takes a while to figure them out.

I will wait until IE9 comes out of beta and is offered as part of the Windows Update scenario. And then I will wait two-three months for the bugs to be worked out before I download it and install it.
Great post. Wise as always.
