It is a very funny marketing scheme but there’s enough stats out there to twist that Microsoft isn’t actually lying… they aren’t just telling all the truths. It feels like a comparison for home or work use as opposed to developers use. Gave me a good laugh for the day :D

Considering IE makes up the majority of users’ browsers (including most big corporations who might have their own internal web applications) most websites have to support it. Especially with IE8’s compatibility mode to render things the way IE7 did it it’s very high on the compatibility mode.
