MS to allow for a Web Browser Ballot in their OS

[nemrod]

Bundling IE with Windows is not a monopolistic act per se. And now giving the user a screen to actually choose a browser makes it less so.

If I don't make a mistake, in the 3 first years of IE, IE despite being free has gain only 30% of the market. In a few months, when IE was put in windows has gained 80% of the market. Not abuse of monopolistic position? If you don't remember the history, you can't understand what happen today... And what has happened today, is less drastic than what could have occured when american justice has thinked to put microsoft in small piece...
