My Short and to the (Share)Point thoughts

Internet Explorer 7 & 8 (64-bit) are only Level 2 Supported SharePoint browser with MOSS SP2

Whilst investigating a Browser support issue for SharePoint I found out that the 64 bit versions of IE7 & IE8 are only Level 2 Supported Browsers.  This means that all the functions performed via the browser with SharePoint will not work as designed in these browsers.

IE7 & IE8 not friends with MOSS 2007             

SharePoint items like the Date picker control, Rich Text Editor field and Datasheet view will not work as designed with the 64 bit versions of IE7 & IE8.
