Oh, there's no problem getting BROWSERS installed - I use Firebird for my day-to-day in the office, and all our internet developers/testers have at least one non-IE browser on their machines (some of them even USE them!)
We produce websites, so the business case for installing (free) browsers for testing is a no-brainer. (We just growl loudly whenever some dork in charge of the corporate firewall decides to require NTLM authentication to see the outside world)
The problem is getting any kind of virtualPC-type arrangement set up - we've been working on getting one for years. It's easier (but far from easy) to get a whole dedicated workstation, which is inconvenient for the users.
(and don't get me started on the disappearing iMac...)
