It’s no surprise to see Microsoft promoting Internet Explorer 10, given the fact that the browser is playing such an important role in the company’s strategy, so here’s another attempt supposed to show you how fast this application can actually be.

Internet Explorer 10 has been designed with touch in mind, Microsoft explained, so it’s no wonder that it’s fully compatible with both tablets and computers featuring touch-capable displays.

“As we built IE10, we were determined to bring a solution to users who were unhappy with their tablet browsing experience. We designed IE10 from the ground up to be the best browser for tablets, and most importantly, the best browser for touch. Touch is an area of technology that is ripe for innovation, and one that we invested heavily in for IE10 on Windows 8,” the company explained in a lengthy blog post.

At this point, Internet Explorer 10 is installed on approximately 6 percent of all computers worldwide, while IE8, currently the number one browser on the market, has a share of 23 percent.
