Wtf? Are you seriously suggesting that Windows 7 will ship without any browser? Do you really believe that that is possible? Really?


Well that is how they interpreted the court orders. The court says they meant MS should present a choice, though. Which I consider madness: why force a company to ship the products of it's competitors???


In Europe it won't ship with IE: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/8096701.stm


Well MS have said they won't bundle it, but apparently this isn't good enough for the EU, who want them to include competitors' browsers - although which ones? Can I sue if they don't include browlzilla? I wouldn't use IE if you paid me but I support Redmond on this one, they've done enough.
