Victory! Microsoft to introduce choice of browser
Reuters reports that Microsoft is trying to solve two EU cases at the same time by letting users choose their browser, rather than IE or no browser at all.
The solution is one of we've discussed before, using a dialog at the first boot of Windows to let the user choose their default installed browser. If this will be part of Windows 7 it could be seen as a big victory for Opera (and those in favor, such as Mozilla and Google).
Of course the details are still a bit sketchy: will it be included in Windows 7, which browsers will be offered as a choice, will Microsoft actually (properly) educate about what the choices mean (or let browser vendors speak for themselves)?
I think this was not your intention, but truer words have never been spoken:
"Of course the details are still a bitch"
P.S. Why <cite> tags, but no <q> tags? And I wonder whether italizing the above quote would really be equivalent to the <em> tag.. Not that this is terribly important, I just noticed for obvious reasons.
Thanks, fixed it! :)
This site uses Drupal (5.x) and I've enabled only simple HTML for comments. The tags supported by this option are defined by Drupal itself, so I can't really say why they don't support it (not for security reasons, probably to offer a limited set of tags).
