    Windows 10: Project Spartan makes an appearance in build 10009-spartandestop.jpg

    Not too long ago we've seen images of build 10009 of the Windows 10 Technical Preview leak on the web.

    The same people group that released the last set of images have now released more images that show a rather interesting new feature that is present in build 10009. The screenshots show Microsoft's Project Spartan web browser running on a Windows build that was compiled at the end of January, which means Insiders might get a chance to play with it sooner than expected.

    The new web browser is going to replace Internet Explorer as the default in Windows 10, and will have a plethora of new features, such as Cortana integration, annotation capabilities, a reading list, and proper extension support.

    Spartan is not just a visual redesign, it's also powered by an entirely new engine created specifically for the modern web called EdgeHTML, which is no longer bloated with legacy code. Its name is not final, but a lot of people want Microsoft to keep calling it 'Spartan'.

    I hope it's standards compliant that most other browsers use.

    Now this is some good news and something to look forward to in the upcoming build. I really want to kick the tires of this new browser.

    Hope Spartan (IE12 ?) continues the recent trend of making big improvements

    It's not going to be IE12, it's Spartan a new browser. MS is dropping the name IE.

    What I think is a nice way to go. Every technology has to be replaced one day and IE11 rendering engine is bloated and becoming obsolete.

    But remember that...

    Let's just call it Spartan, I like that name but that icon is definitely circa dial-up era.
