iirc the euro. requirement was not so much for there to be no browser at all, but for the option of allowing other browsers and a removal of IE if the user wanted. The situation now proposed by MS that Windows 7 will be shipped with no browser at all in europe was something the legislators expressed surprise about, and suggested that was not necessary. http://europa.eu/rapid/pressReleasesAction.do?reference=MEMO/09/272&format=HTML&aged=0&language=EN&guiLanguage=en 'in terms of potential remedies if the Commission were to find that Microsoft had committed an abuse, the Commission has suggested that consumers should be offered a choice of browser, not that Windows should be supplied without a browser at all.' -- alan cocks Ubuntu user -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
