If that's the case then Microsoft needs to lean hard on all small and midsize business using a version of Sharepoint or Solomon or Great Plains to upgrade their internal apps to no longer require IE. Where I work our timesheets app on Solomon requires Internet Explorer -- which is a bucket of fun for all of our MacBook Pro using sales team.
Microsoft may want us to move on from IE but they've created the apps that REQUIRE us to keep using IE.

What amazes me is large SASS companies like ADP whose eTime timesheet app required the JRE to function until they upgraded it a couple years ago to use Flash instead. They still only officially support Internet Exploder, and when we switched to Chrome as our office standard they forced an addon that opens certain incompatible sites like ADP.com in IE if you try to visit them in Chrome.
