Huh? Isn't the entire point of GP's comments that they are /not/ gone?
Just because Chrome is a bit less terrible than IE6 in terms of user/dev experience (which, to me, is entirely a matter of more sophistication in software development and Internet stuff, and a keen and burning desire to sell ads) doesn't mean we're in a good position. A browser monoculture is good for nobody but Google.
This feels like the exact same bad old days to me, where if you're not using the modern-day IE6, the web is a pain in the ass. That was my takeaway from the article and (as a Firefox user that also reaches for Chrome far too often) one I sympathise with.
