Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) to Support Hardware Accelerated RenderingYou wanted more details about upcoming Internet Explorer 9 release? Here, you have it.

Steven Sinofsky, the president of Microsoft’s Windows and Windows Live divisions said that IE9 will take an advantage of a computer’s graphics hardware to better render online images, videos, animations and other graphics.

“We think that the hardware you run on should shine through the browser”, Sinofsky Said.

Smooth graphics rendering is also included into Internet Explorer 9 features tree. In addition, he said that team has yet to decide, on how much of HTML5 features IE9 is going to support.

With improved HTML/CSS markup languages support, Sinofsky also demoed IE’s ability to create rounded borders.

No further details or preliminary release dates were revealed.
