IE 10 is a pretty solid browser. It's fast, it covers huge swaths of CSS3 including animations, hyphenations, transforms, and more, it supports HTML5 very well. In fact, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript are a fully supported way to write full-blown Windows 8 Metro apps, and MS is showing how serious they are by having written nearly every single example Windows 8 app as an HTML5 app. To be honest, it feels a lot like webOS.
MS is really serious this time around. I think writing IE off at this point would be short-sighted.

- mattmanser 15y agoYou're right of course, Chrome broken the ground and Firefox followed, the constant behind the scenes update model is the way we're going to be expecting all software to work soon. Unfortunately this doesn't fit well with enterprise customers who are stuck remembering the days of updates breaking all their internal apps and being told by their incompetent IT departments it'll take 3 months to fix. IE is in a bit of a tricky place for MS.
