I doubt it will be useful or helpful at all to you. You have already decided that you have no use for it, so why bother asking others to argue how useful it might be?
Regardless of what browser you prefer, having a choice is always a good thing. It pushes for adding useful features and removing useless ones.
Arguing that IE is better because it's preinstalled is no argument at all. Go buy a new PC, lots of software is preinstalled that many people don't use.
Personally, I use Firefox in Linux, Windows, and OS X. I like having all my bookmarks synchronized on all three platforms. Also having them in a single file makes backups much simpler. I'm not saying IE is horrible because it doesn't use a single bookmark file, it's just one of the small things in Firefox that makes me enjoy using it more than IE.
Oh, and IE used to come with Macintosh OS X, but since 10.3 Safari has been the default browser which is based on KHTML (Konqueror from KDE).
