Windows 7 and IE split concerns

[apogeeza]

The OEM's can choose to listen to the requests of the market (hello dellideastorm.com ) or they can chose to bow to the pressure of the almighty hand that feeds: MS are known to give hefty "rebates" for machines carrying a glut of MS apps and other bloatware (I never WANTED MS money ande Encarta etc, it was thrust upon me.) But these "rebates" and "thank you's" are only paid in the absence of Linux OEM machines coming out of their factory ... Who's to blame? OEM or MS... Most definately MS because they are using their dominance to force their will on the consumer.

Why are we even explaining these well documented publically googlable facts again, and again, and again ... oh, wait you're an MS fanboi, that's why.

My bad, carry on...

No, it's the OEM's fault for buckling to MS pressure and denying end-user choice.

So running dellideastorm.com was a total waste of time and money and all contributions were raped and/or discarded... just a PR slap in the face to end consumers.

My PC has a little sticker on it that says "Designed for Microsoft Windows XP". It is also a TM (trademark), which they must have permission from MS to use it.
