Hi All
One more while I'm in the mood to shamelessly ask questions. I remember reading about the EU anti-trust stuff and Windows 7 and at one time there was going to be no browser installed with Windows 7 at all, with the special Euro versions of Win7.
Then this was modified such that the user was to be offered a browser choice screen, so he/she could select the browser of choice.
Having just been installing Win 7, I'm surprised to see that I get IE installed by default, with no browser choice at all.
Have the EU rules been ignored completely by MS, or have I missed something? Why can I STILL not have an Internet Explorer free windows? (At least nominally, I don't care if it is still there in the background.)
Yours frustratedly,
silverj
