How many of us have Client's still using these versions

Alot of clients haven't even reached those versions yet. My last client was still running Windows XP and was looking at the feasibility of moving to Windows 7 within the next 5 years! I kid you not and they have 70,000 employees.

Same with my last contract, they paid millions for extended XP support.

And mine. I'm one of the chosen few who were given IE11, but we have to report every issue when running certain software in Enterprise mode.

8 for most people here, 11 for the "lucky" ones, like me

I've been using Edge, which comes with Windows 10 that I have installed on my lovely new super-duper PC. (Did I mention that my lovely new super-duper PC boots up in 15 seconds and has a 34" ultra-wide 4k screen and that I have already completed Assassins Creed Syndicate on it?)

Edge is "OK". I don't think its as intuitive as IE but it feels simpler and more stripped down, I suppose to cater for the average American IQ.

!!

11 for everyone here. the SIS team are actually pretty good. Don't tell them!

Now if only Networks could find their elbow.

atleast MS finallllly realized to pull the plug on that crappy versifying and trying to force people to jump from 6,7 to Edge, which works like all other normal browser.

But we all know that will only happen in 5-10 years any way for some companies. Its good news, finally.
