Chrome is the new IE 4 & 5, when MS were still doing the extend and extinguish thing, implementing crap their way, standards be damned. Safari is the new IE 6, when MS stagnated because they had won in large enough areas not to really care any more and designers were forced to hold back on using things for compatibility's sake. If we're more generous, maybe Safari is more like IE 9/10/11 when MS at least tried to be more up-to-date but were behind and non-compliant enough to be a significant pain. Though for us IE11 is still the current IE11 as one or two clients still have a few users on it, we can say “not supported” all we like, but we'll still get complaints if things flat out don't work (display issues and slowness we can tell people to deal with, dysfunction we can't).
