I laugh at the continued misfortunes of Windows users. Well, actually my mac does have IE installed somewhere and I pray it never gets activated by mistake (although MacOS has a nice feature where it alerts you if a program gets used for the first time).
In case you wonder what would happen if Microsoft did fix their software, see here. I quote:
Microsoft's last major delay of Windows XP Service Pack 2 was caused by a hue and cry from enterprise evaluators about largely invisible new security measures, especially those in Internet Explorer that affect Web applications. [...] Mainstream Web sites that employ unsigned ActiveX applets, downloads, pop-up windows, browser helper objects, and other code- or scripting-based functions may encounter difficulty with SP2 version IE 6.
