Microsoft Unbundles

So you prefer browsing the web with Firefox over Microsoft Internet Explorer but every time you click on a link in a Microsoft Word document you're back to using IE.  It's that kind of bundling that helped make a Microsoft a software giant.  But now Microsoft is loosening the reins.  Its next generation computer operating system, Windows 7, will let you remove IE and other previously unremovable Microsoft applications from the operating system if you don't use them, freeing up system resources.  A lead Windows developer says it's all about consumer choice -- then again, the European Union has been threatening to force Microsoft to permit the program removals. -- Jeff B. Copeland, Content Product Manager
