Things are certainly looking better in the world of IE than it did ten years ago, when we were basically all stuck with IE6 for years. The jumps from IE8 to IE9 and IE10 have been pretty large - but I agree they certainly do have more to do. (Hopefully IE11 comes along sooner rather than later).

Regardless, as long as people are on a recently released version of any browser (let's say within the last year or two), that's a pretty good situation. There are people on old versions of other browsers too, IE8 is just the most popular 'old' one.
