I think you are very close to the issue with this comment. At banks, a lot of applications run in your browser. I think they've mostly all been coded for IE, people know they "work" in IE, and I think that is part of what causes this huge ridiculous lag. whenever we upgrade an OS or a browser it's a Big Fucking Deal. I have to think it's somehow related to the applications we use in day-to-day work (which can be pretty sensitive) and potential upgrade issues there. Also, there's not a single bank I've worked in that doesn't still use DOS systems at some point. Banks be old school as fuck, yo. But I will be getting Chrome! So like I said...don't worry about me too much.a lot of webapps and older databases look good in IE8 but load weirdly on newer browsers
