For years I’ve suggested that Microsoft should slap European trustbusters aside the head by pulling Windows out of their market. Microsoft’s plan to pull Internet Explorer 8 from Windows 7 on the Continent is nearly as good.
Now how did I miss this earlier—or is it new? While comparing Bing and Google search for the post before last, I came across something surprising (see photo below). Google is more aggressively hawking Chrome with search. Will Chrome’s shine blind trustbusters?
Have you wondered why Microsoft quietly accepted yet another two years of government oversight? Simply put, Microsoft doesn’t want to end up with the problems looming over Google.
