Having tried it, I can tell you that 3 is optimistic. Beyond the 
"hey, wow! I'm running IE in X" its not very great. Its prone to 
crashing often and easily. Its also prone to randome fits of wackyness.
All in all, if you must use IE, boot into windows, do your thing, then
reboot.

Before anyone chimes in with vmware, that counts as windows.
