Seffiks Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Ok so there has been a battle going on for awhile now about Microsoft bundling software on the OS's and Europe does not want that,( all good and fair) But now they want MS to take out IE of Windows 7 (which they did) and now they are crying about that it isn't enough they want everything called back once more and have them bundle all the other web browsers inside the OS. And this process is such a huge waste of time because in windows 7 you can manually remove IE in the first place. and its just costing Europeans more money to purchase a version of the OS without IE built in or Windows Mediaplayer. Which can be removed very easily manually from the Windows Features panel. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/13/technology/companies/13euro.html?ref=world Great Idea Euros!!, cost yer country millions in a legal battle you will prolly win, but in return you will get a product that cost more with less features and more bloated with junk web browsers ( all you need is firefox) which will sit next to a full retail version that costs less price and yer custom version will just sit on the shelves.
