Microsoft confirmed for CNET as the future operating system Windows 7 will be sold in Europe, danger internet browser-ul Internet Explorer.
This measure comes after a process with UE, in which Microsoft is accused of violating competition laws on the internet browser market. Because surfing the Internet without a browser is impossible, OEMwill have a simple option through which the user will be able to install browser-ul Internet Explorer is free.

“Given the pending legal proceeding, we’ve decided that instead of including Internet Explorer in Windows 7 in Europe, we will offer it separately and on an easy-to-install basis to both computer manufacturers and users..”

According to Microsoft, Windows 7 for Europe will be released in versions on 64-be and 32-be, and the product will be identified by the letter “E” added to the end of the name. Windows 7 E.
Windows 7 E it will include all the features and functionalities of Windows 7 operating systems, except for Internet Explorer, which will remain at the user's free choice.

We do not know how much Microsoft will be affected by this, because most operating systems are seen (pre-installed) together with the PCs / laptops, the manufacturers having full right to install other applications in addition to the operating system.
We will probably buy a laptop next year DELL with Google Chrome installed instead of Internet Explorer…or a laptop Toshiba with Opera Browser installed by default.

The aberrations of the European Union could continue in the near future, with laws that prohibits the sale and use of software applications which will not be “compatible” cu the interests of some software producers from the EU / friends of the EU (gen. Opera – Norway).
