Micro$oft keep saying they "get it" but all I see is a company determined to avoid standards compliance because it deeply benefits their proprietary product sales. With the resource they have they could pump out a standards compliant version in no time - and if not they should just ship Firefox with Windows and rid the planet of the IE curse once and for all. Just release a browser that _actually_ works... FFS! I really don’t give a toss what they call it, I just want the darn thing to be standards compliant.
