Yeah, it does sound good. They don't have a release date though... I think
it's important not to stop supporting the open source browsers out there
while we wait for Microsoft's vaporware.
If Microsoft does release IE for Linux and it's a good product, great, but
meanwhile I plan to assume that it's not going to happen. Also, I don't
think we want Microsoft gaining monopoly status in the Unix browser market
and further screwing with internet standards... personally, I'll migrate
to a good open source browser as soon as there's one available.

Just my $0.02
