Microsoft supporting standards finally instead of bastardising them for it's own purposes can surely only be a good thing.
At least we no longer have to look at stupid "best viewed in Internet Explorer" at the bottom of so many webpages any more.
Also, one of my current big problems is our inability to use anything other than Windows as an OS because so many of our customers use web-apps which require ActiveX controls and only work on Windoze/IE. So, for me, HTML5 can't come quick enough, and if MS are in on the development then they've less reason to undermine it later - we're all winners if that happens
