So the EU has dropped the antitrust charges over IE against MS. Discuss.
they realized what a phenomenal waste of money and time it was
I think it was absolutely fucking ridiculous in the first place. Who the fuck is the EU to say what Microsoft bundles with its new operating system? It's THEIR fucking software...don't like what's in it? Don't fucking buy it.

Are we in a paradox now?The following errors need to be corrected before the message can be posted:

looks like you tried to post a second before you were allowed again, and by the time the message was generated saying you couldn't, it was already a couple seconds past the time limit.
I agree with CrazeD, it was stupid of the EU. Microsoft is not forcing anyone to use IE, and anyone who simply wants to use an alternative can just download their browser of choice and forget about IE. I use FF 3.5 and love it. What's unfair is forcing Microsoft to bundle their OS with software people don't want or preventing them from bundling with their own software. Better software will find it's way to users who want them, hence why FF is gaining market share while IE is losing it without any regulation.
