Intranet sites & testing
LeoD 16th Jan 2010
I've found the excuse is usually web apps and Intranet sites, often in a semi-abandoned state, where there are fears that changing browser will break them.

Nobody wants to put up the budget to even test the sites to see if the fears are valid, let alone the budget to fix them if required.

It's gotta happen one day, though...

Corporate IT is usually extremely short sighted, at least at most of the large organisations I have worked. It's always seen as a drain on the organisation's budget, a necessary cost that needs to be minimised, rather than something that if you spent and plan wisely can boost your company's performance by providing good tools (e.g. NOT Lotus Notes, heh).
