Another article on this said, "Rather than optimizing script execution, 
which is now used a lot of sites, like Chrome and Firefox, Microsoft 
picked out the top 20 sites on the web, then 'optimized' their browser 
to show those pages faster." This of course means they might be 
optimizing it to show IE friendly pages, that use really crappy code, 
better (instead of IE hating pages with really good coding, but since I 
have no idea which pages where used, I couldn't say one way or the 
other), but... since when have they cared what was on the pages, as long 
as their browser worked better with the "major" ones, even if it was an 
accident of those pages being written for the browser in the first place. :p
