Opera: Apple, Ubuntu Should Include Browser Ballot Screen Too
Linked by
Thom Holwerda
on Mon 27th Jul 2009 07:29 UTC
Last week, the European Commission announced that
Microsoft is willing to implement a browser ballot screen in Windows
so that users can select a browser to install when installing Windows or when setting up their OEM computer. While this makes Opera very happy,
Opera would like to see Ubuntu and Apple offer such a ballot screen too

I think you lack basic comprehension skills in the English language. He clearly made a suggestion, which is exactly how I put it in the headline.
Actually, he answered a yes/no question from a journalist. The JOURNALIST was making the suggestion. He merely replied that it MAY be a good idea.
"Still, it may be a good idea to offer it." That's a suggestion.
No, that's a response to a yes/no question.
It isn't my fault you are busier chasing sensationalist headlines than actually doing a minimum of journalistic work with some integrity.
