> I don't see us repeating the IE6 era however. The Internet is core to Google's business in a way that it never was to Microsoft.

Depends on what your takeaway from the IE6 era was--if its that MS abandoned development and the web stagnated, then I think you're correct. However if you takeaway was that too much power was concentrated in a single private entity who has the defacto ability to control development and standards and channel them towards their best interests, not the users, then I think it would be the IE6 era all over again.
