So ie pre ie9 is still going to be out there; I think that ie9 should be
released as an xp version also
the other browsers all make versions that work for xp and support html5;
though though some things would only work on ie9 (pinning tasks)
let's not get confused here. pinning tasks and all the other stuff that
MS has been touting recently has nothing to do with HTML5, CSS3, or
anything else. It's their proprietary meta element additions ...

also, as already mentioned, but worth reiterating because of the
thread's subject line: H.264 is merely a video codec. there are other
codecs out there in use (ogg theora and webm). it's the fundamental
behind it - the video element in HTML5 and its native support in
browsers - that is the technology to be discussed (and whether or not
that can supplant flash in certain generic use cases), not the
(royalty/patent-encumbered) h.264 codec.
