Businesses only upgrade if they have a case. Having websites and cloud services move to HTML 5 is a pretty darn good business case to upgrade. IN the past IE 6 had such a strong marketshare that they didnt have to worry about as webmasters were forced to cater to it.
According to statcounter.com IE 8 usage is falling fast to 14% in the weekdays and 10% at the weekends. IE also is getting auto updated with Windows Update and before did not which is why grandmas kept using IE 6 for many many years. When that number hits 5% IE 8 you can expect websites will start focusing on HTML 5 and CSS 3.
IE 8 may remain for many corps for years but it wont be all business this time around because of the things stated above. I mean they didn't stick with Mosaic for 10 years did they?
