Modern IE8 isn't as bad as you make it out to be. Every web site I visit works just fine in it, it's got a nice set of security features, and I'm familiar with it. What else do I need? The biggest issue is just that it's abandoning XP before I am, hence why the next big update, hardware acceleration, means I'll need to make a switch.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
