[AccessD] Windows 8

IME the ones that do install another browser do it in large part due to
Google's search or Gmail page constantly nagging them to download chrome.
They have Firefox because I load it ;-)

Another thing I've noticed lately is that most consumers no longer realize
they can type a direct URL. They seem to think they have to search for
everything. I've seen it go so far as typing google.com into Bing search. So
sad <shaking head>.

I'm well aware of the tyranny of the default, but I'm not sure that always
holds true when you look at browser stats and see Chrome's overall dominance
of the market.

There's a joke among us pretentious IE bashers: Internet Explorer is the
best browser for downloading a better browser
