"Microsoft has steadfastly denied charges that it illegally bundled its Internet browser into newer versions of Windows to trounce Netscape. It maintains that it can't be guilty of ''tying'' those products because its browser is a component of Windows, not a separate software program. "
I find it funny and frustrating at the same time, that this is the whole issue at hand, bundling the browser with the os. I happen to like the integrated browser functionality. I happened to like it when ie was not part of the os... the idea is a great one. I make use of the integrated browser everyday, and if given a choice, would pick that option over the competition. I understand that M$ has it's problems, but I don't think innovation is one of them. When everyone else can offer the functionality and features I use then I will consider changing. but in the mean time I find our government stupid for suing a company for giving the masses what they want.
