Love the improved dev tools and WebGL decision, but I also hate how long it's taken MS to reach this point.

Would also love for IE 11 to be available on Windows 7.

Have they said it won't be on Windows 7? I would expect them to release it on Win7 to try and keep their market share. I hope they do as I am building a WebGL application for work :)
They haven't confirmed either way, which is why I'm still hoping it'll land in Win7:

"We aren't sharing anything around which versions of Windows IE11 will be available on at this time."

So far it's at least safe to assume MS support current and previous releases. As this is a feature pack to w8 and not w9 I should be ok so assume ie11 will see w7.

But who knows, MS seem to think ie is some carrot to lure people to them. It could as such be crippled to w8.
