It's because Microsoft is working on a new browser that also uses the webkit engine I believe.

the first thing pretty much everyone does on a new windows installation is to open internet explorer and then download another web browser through it.

I'm digging Microsoft's Halo theme.

My IT teacher told us about this and literally everyone in the classroom cheered.
Hopefully this spartan browser is really good and it fixes a lot of the problems people had with internet explorer in the first place.

i hope it's just a lighter version of chrome

Yeah it's modified webkit but the CSS properties are still -webkit, Google just removed many things to lighten it up, aswell as add some features.
