It doesn’t support any old IE plugins, it contains none of the IE/7/8/9/10 codebase, but instead is based on only the newly written parts of IE11, and it supports Firefox and Chrome addons.

Wow. Why aren't they marketing this? Creating a browser from scratch, considering the current state of web technologies is a huge undertaking. I always thought it's just a re-skinned IE with some touch features.
Not really from scratch, they forked Trident, removed the crap and built from there.
