Given that we've had web browsers since 1992, and that they've only recently started supporting hardware acceleration, that doesn't seem like something that needs to be "admitted". They advertise it because when and if it works for you, it is a feature. I'm not pro-MS here, I promise. But they suck hard enough on real issues that it's stupid to go after them for pretend ones. If you're going to slag them on this, slag them for deciding to depend on a Vista+ api. Don't pretend they're accidentally revealing their own lies when they aren't.
