Win7E to come to EU without a browser
Jun. 12th, 2009 11:59 pmWindows 7 E coming to Europe without Internet Explorer – in response to the antitrust cases. My question is: will the future version of MacOS come to the European market without the Safari browser then? I don't wish to shed tears upon Microsoft. It is as much as useless to make react European bureaucratic authorities, which would take years, probably in vain. The most vulnerable here is the user, non-techy, non-advanced, who would barely wish to install a bunch of new programs on a new PC, preferring to work on a machine as is, right out of the box. There are A LOT of such customers. And after all, isn't it just stupid – to sell an operating system without a key application used by virtually any PC user, namely, a browser? The first question a simple PC user would ask, 'where's my Internet?' Seems to be kind of existencial question. Meanwhile, here is a good option for the Apple to broaden its market by the well-known user friendly turnkey solutions.
Update: And see what the EU's response is!

(And make all names float around so there will be no preference predefined by the message ;)

Был пиратом жадный Билли,
Правда, Билли не любили
Ни матросы, ни пираты,
Ни детишки, ни родня,
И не мог умерить Билли
Аппетиты крокодильи,
И, чтоб Билли не побили,
Просто не было и дня.
Раз-два-три-четыре-пять,
Знаете наверно,
Раз-два-три-четыре-пять,
Жадность - это скверно.
Раз-два-три-четыре-пять,
Скажем без подвоха,
Раз-два-три-четыре-пять,
Жадность - это плохо,
Жадность - это плохо,
Жадность - это плохо.
