    If true, this is amazing news.

    Zac Bowden, Windows Central:

    Microsoft is throwing in the towel with EdgeHTML and is instead building a new web browser powered by Chromium, a rendering engine first popularized by Google’s Chrome browser. Codenamed Anaheim, this new web browser for Windows 10 will replace Edge as the default browser on the platform.

    Edge has never been anything more than a pimple on the butt of Windows 10. Now, maybe, MS will go with an industry standard web rendering engine and add some worthwhile bells and whistles.
