I had to laugh while reading this TechCrunch post about how Microsoft is (sorta) killing Internet Explorer in Windows 10.
The article notes how Microsoft will be including legacy support for IE in Windows 10, since Microsoft recognizes that some enterprises have built websites that rely on older IE technology and features.
That's where I LOL'd.
I remember as recently as 2010 how a major US bank actually recommended people use IE 6 over Firefox or Chrome. In fact, that bank actually was threatening to block users from visiting the company website if they used Opera or Chrome.
So yeah, I think it's safe to say some enterprises are still stuck in the dark ages of web browsers. Back in my web development days, I used to curse IE regularly for its weird behavior and failure to adopt sensible web standards. Many web developers the world over share my white hot fury toward that godforsaken browser.
So as much as I would dance for joy if IE were finally killed off once and for all, I'm not holding my breath just yet.
