Microsoft showed the first version of Internet Explorer 10

At the next annual conference for MIX developers in Las Vegas, Microsoft showed the first technical version of the Internet Explorer 10 web browser. This happened only 4 weeks after the final version of IE9, and the development of IE10 began only 3 weeks ago, reportscNews.ru .

Talking about IE10, the Vice President of Microsoft for the development of Internet Explorer Din Khachamovich especially noted the intention of Microsoft with the release of each new product to move towards an increasingly widespread support of web-standards. For example, the company opened the resource www.html5Labs.com to coordinate specifications (something like an analogue of W3C).

To the question of whether the company plans to release new versions of the web browser more often, as, for example, this does Google, Microsoft answered negatively.

The first technical version of IE10 is mainly built precisely for the capabilities of hardware acceleration, in addition to which the support of new web-standards appeared, including CSS3 Multi-Column Layout, CSS3 Grid Layut, CSS3 Flexible Box3 Gradents and ES5 STRICT Mode.

In addition, according to representatives of Microsoft, IE9 was the first browser with support for hardware acceleration, and this function covers not only graphics, but also text, audio and video.
