Windows 7 to Amputate IE8

For more PC Frustration Humor Subscribe in a reader


Pretty soon we will be able to uninstall internet explorer from our computer, WTF?
The winds of change have apparently forced Microsoft to amend their ways and allow users of the next generation OS to uninstall Internet Explorer 8. The dramatic about face comes almost a decade to late for the now mythological Netscape Navigator, and right on the heels of a European court's imminent decision that Microsoft will have to make room for their browser software competitors. All in all this seems to be an appropriate decision because it eliminates the problem of how to get your "first" browser after OS installation, but still leaves you with the option to choose which Browser you want to work with. It remains to be seen how simple (or not) it will be to uninstall IE from Windows 7.
