Agreed. My first thought when I saw this is that I hope people don't use it. I know that many people developing sites for a living can't afford to ignore IE, but I really think that IE incompatibility is MS's problem that they've foisted on everyone else. I wish more people would design sites to standards and when they get complaints about "bad design", kindly point IE users to MS tech support.
But that will never happen. The sad fact is that you have to cater to your audience, and almost all people will just click back and look for another site if your site doesn't render perfectly in their browser of choice (or in the case of IE, the only browser they've ever known, even though they didn't choose it). So much time and effort wasted due to MS's anti-competive practices and incompetence.
