Use the browser search function, middle click links and have it respect your settings, use the browser's spellchecker on a textbox, increasing the text size with reflowing, using screen readers, etc.

(Oh, and anything that Flash technically supports but doesn't do by default unlike HTML/CSS/JS is essentially the same as not having it, since we all know 90% of developers won't care).

Oh, and more recently, use new versions on Linux outside of Chrome: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3780368

Relative positioning. Floats. Fonts (dynamic of course; particularly targeting 9 and below - functional, but pretty buggy). Hardware accelerated transforms.

For games (and certainly banners)? I still think there's long way to go to catch up to Flash, even older Flash. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=680284
