No IE pre-installed in Windows 7 for Europe
“That’s it !!” says Microsoft execs. Microsoft decided not to push IE on-board for the next Windows release for Europe. Following the European Commission regarding antitrust against Microsoft, it is stated that MS rules the browser world unfairly. So, Microsoft will just ship it browserless for European.
Well, the good news is European users will now have option to install whatever browser that they wish. So long the old monopoly.
But one (or some) might wonder, what good is an Operating System without browser? Tell me what you think.
And oh, Windows 7 is set to be released globally on 22 October 2009.
