Node lets you write network servers. Web servers would be a subset of that. 
Since any web browser, old versions of IE included, should speak relatively 
standards-compliant HTTP, there should be no problem serving content to them 
from node. Whether the HTML you write and serve is compatible with the old IE 
rendering engines is a completely different matter, and is entirely up to you. 
And if you want to use modern features like websockets, you're probably out of 
luck.
