I had no idea this one was still alive.
The NYT is reporting this morning that Europe is nearing a deal with Microsoft on browser choice of Windows users.
Really?
Earth to Europe: you can download Mozilla or Chrome or even Opera and set it as your default browser. You have always been able to do this. While you're at it, you can download Thunderbird and set it as your default. And rather than lay out big dollars for MS Office, you can download and install OpenOffice. Your computer will not stop working. Black helicopters will not hover overhead. And the Microsoft police will not show up at your door.
If you want to be truly subversive, you can even dispense with Windows altogether and install Ubuntu. For free!
If European bureaucrats have nothing better to do than fight last decade's war, than citizens are truly getting very little value for money. I had no idea this was still going on.
