No problem. The amazing ability to write Windows applications without the need for a web browser has been part of the Windows SDK since Windows 1.0.

We’re posting this information now because we have real working code checked in and we’re confident about delivering it in the final product. We’re listening to the feedback about IE, and at the same time, we are committed to responsible disclosure and setting expectations properly. Now that we’ve run the test on multiple machines and seen it work, we’re excited to be able to share definitive information.
Nice!
