The value over the previous versions of IE is that IE9 implements a huge number of html/css/JS fixes, so it is much more like FF/Chrome/Safari than IE8.
For FF/Chrome/Safari users this means that it becomes much more likely to see web-sites use html5 technologies and leave IE6-8 behind.
So if you create intranet web-sites, then a huge amount of pain is gone when the company upgrades its IE install base to IE9. Personally, I'm looking very much forward to this, and I'm able to tell my customer that this will save valuable time for me (i.e. money for them).
