Microsoft announced on Tuesday that network managers can now upgrade any Windows PC’s on their networks to the latest version of Internet Explorer 8 via their Windows Server Update Services platform, clearly representing a significant time saver for managers of large networks.
Does this easier to upgrade option mean that large organisations, businesses, schools, universities, colleges, etc., IE6’s last remaining stronghold, will now finally be encouraged to make the move away from IE6?
And could this finally mean an end to Web Designers spending hours ensuring that their latest creations are backward compatible with this last remaining relic of a time long forgotten?
Here’s looking to a brighter, happier and more standards compliant IE6-less future, fingers crossed!
