Does anyone know what the actual metrics being used for this site are? Maybe it was discussed in a previous HN? I don't see in the present environment how Chrome can ever reach the kind of power IE once had given the existence of iOS if nothing else. It's not just about pure marketshare either, it's about value share (which is often the stat that companies actually care about, with marketshare only being an occasionally useful proxy measure). Even if alternate platform users like iOS/Mac/Linux who don't use Chrome were only 10-30% of users say, what percent of revenue do they represent? It's not a uniform distribution amongst the general population.
And while there remain and probably always will be quirks between browsers and standards one implements that others don't yet and so on, I don't think there is anything quite like ActiveX remaining in the modern web.
