Microsoft, EU reach accord on antitrust

      

From the Crime & Punishment dept.:
...The new settlement offer addresses charges that Microsoft distorted competition in its favor in the market for web browsers, by giving its Internet Explorer (IE) browser an unfair advantage over rivals.

..To address the browser case the software giant has offered to create a new ballot screen inside its Windows operating system that lists a maximum of 12 browsers and gives them all exactly the same visibility and ease of use as IE.

Freaking government is the problem instead of the solution about 99% of the time and it gets worse everyday.

It seems like its a long and winding legal battle. Whatever the outcome is I hope that it will be for the good of Internet end consumers like us.

The bad browsers will eventually be weeded out and this stuff won't matter any more. I found Flock and love it.
