In a move to basically outflank the EU antitrust investigation, Microsoft has announced that all version of Windows 7 shipped in Europe will not include Internet Explorer 8 by default. This is reminiscent of the Windows XP N editions, which did not include Windows Media Player, but the difference here is that Microsoft will not ship versions of Windows 7 with Internet Explorer 8 in Europe.

They were talking about how basically opera is never satisfied with last place and will bitch about any outcome, not about how IE needs to be standards compliant, I fail to see the relevance here. Opera is a company, and NO profit based company is out for the consumers best interest UNLESS it serves their own, that's absolute fact. Next step is that EU makes microsoft put opera on the top of the list, with flashing Vegas style lights and a "HEY CLICK HERE FOR NATURAL ENHANCEMENT" message scrolling by. They need to quiet down, Opera will never gain marketshare as long as firefox, chrome and safari are swimming around.
