Microsoft is accused by EU again

[Moh]

Even thought I hate Microsoft, I think this is stupid.

How do you download any other browser when you don't have a browser installed?

I do however, think they shouldn't have it embedded into the system. You should be able to install it if you don't want it.

[--ss--]

Screw what they say, they're just money hungry scumbags.
If people didn't like IE they can always download another one, it's not like MS are syaing you can only use IE with their Operating Systems.

But they are saying you have to have it installed, it should come with Firefox installed imo.

Why the hell would they supply their OWN operating system with a COMPETITORS operating system?

Thats just ******* stupid.

Thats like microsoft setting up an advertisement campaign on TV for firefox? why the **** would they do that, its idiotic.

Also you can delete IE if you want :S

Because Firefox is better, and don't Microsoft like to provide the best service?

Also, IE's embedded into the system, you cannot install it.

Well it'll be unfair on all other browsers then, if they're gunna make it so it has to come with Firefox then they have to make sure it also comes with Google Chrome, Opera, Safari and every other browser aswell. They're gunna complicate things so they mightaswell leave it as it is.

True. Their should be a vote on which Browser comes installed, then no one can complain

But they can't cause if they chose to create all them then I'd create a company and make a browser (i wouldn't but just for example) then i could sue the EU for allowing them to give MS with all them browsers and not mine. so it'd be ridiculous.

The minority can :p

It's their OS so they have every right to use their own browser, infact it's not like the browser is going to make them any extra direct cash, it's a free service they're providing with their software, if they were to charge people to use it then it'd be a different story.

Some linux distibutions (like Ubuntu) come with Firefox... that's basically the same as this.
