There's one major obstacle to adoption of non-IE browsers: something I call the "big blue E syndrome".
I see it a lot at work-- all computers have both IE and Firefox installed and the icons are positioned next to one another on the desktop. As far as I can tell, there are only two of us using Firefox despite it being accessible alongside IE. That big blue E, for most people, IS the internet. It has "Internet" in the name, for goodness sake. I don't use it simply because I need to get things done online in the day and I find IE mindnumbingly slow.
If Google really want to be cheeky, they should take the e from their logo, turn it blue and use it as the Chrome icon. Then rename the browser "Internet with Google"...!
