What the article isn't saying is that Microsoft is essentially stopping development on Internet Explorer in general! They haven't updated either their Windows browser nor the Mac browser for a forever, and they will also cease developing IE for Windows. The only browsers they are going to develop is their MSN browser (supposedly) and a system-based browser that will only appear in another couple of years.
