[OT] I am pleased with the features in the IE9 Demo, even if a couple of features are fully matured (like the ones mentioned in the article) but what about their upgrade strategy? Are they planning on forcing IE users to upgrade? If there isn't some sort of push for people to upgrade then all these changes are for naught.

I don't think they can force people to upgrade. Like I think there would be a legitimate threat from the EU or US that they'd be sued if they did so.
