    Cool thanks for the feedback guys.

    Christoph these are current Desktop OS's that Microsoft will support as of the 12th.

    Windows Vista = Internet Explorer 9
    Windows 7 = Internet Explorer 11
    Windows 8.1= Internet Explorer 11

    Coming straight from their site:

    As for the rest, there will be no more security updates, non-security updates, free or paid assisted support options, or online technical content updates. Security updates patch vulnerabilities that may be exploited by malware, helping to keep users and their data safer. Regular security updates help protect computers from malicious attacks, so upgrading to Windows 11 and staying current is very important.

    Regardless, IE9 has nearly complete support for HTMl5 as does IE10, and with the css reset styles included in genesis it's basically full support

    IE8 has gone from 5.49% total users to 1.7% in the last year and will continue to drop. Still though html5shiv allows it to support html5shiv as well.

    With that in mind I can't see any reason why it should be supported.

    Anyway, thanks again for both of your feedback here. I've never posted in this forum before, wasn't really sure how it worked.

    Sandee I took your advice and joined the facebook and slack group so I'm sure I'll be seeing more of you guys around these groups!
