EU at its !@#$%^&. Can they use their collective brain before they investigate any antitrust complains?

http://news.zdnet.co.uk/software/0,1000000121,39596616,00.htm

How does EU expects home users to download a browser without a IE in windows? Command prompt?

How about asking consumers what they want, instead of applying their antitrust muscle on us? I don't want to go download IE everytime I format my machine!

Oh, just for your information, Opera, if you are good enough for people to use, (like firefox), people will download you to use, even if I have IE!

agree with you here. even Linux distros come with browsers built-in.

the problem with Opera was that they competed against Firefox initially being a non-free app. eventually they offered Opera for free, but by that time Firefox was already gaining market share.
