I only recently moved to IE7 on my work laptop. We're not locked down at all but when IE7 first came out, it caused problems with Visual Studio. Visual Studio is our lifeblood, so anything that could even possibly mess with that, is a no-no. Those issues were cleared up long ago, but still there's little reason to change: we're all using FF3 anyway for everything except for those few sites that only work in IE (and thankfully, that # of sites is shrinking over time).

Still I find it curious that the official MS browser had compatibility issues with the official MS development tools (Visual Studio).
