Microsoft wants MSN icons on some PCs | |

Microsoft Corp. will require some computer makers to post a prominent link to its MSN Internet-access service when they ship computers loaded with Microsoft's new Windows XP software this fall, the company said. The requirement seems to run contrary to the Redmond, Wash., company's move two weeks ago to give computer makers more flexibility in configuring their Windows XP screens. The software has been a hot-button issue in the computer industry because critics charge it comes loaded with many powerful Microsoft services that could have an unfair advantage over the competition. | ||

| Right, but wouldn't you hate turning on a new computer and seeing AOL all in your face and having a very hard time getting around it? It would make YOU want to uninstall the OS and install it clean. Now think of all the less-intelligent computer buyers who won't know to do that. They'll see AOL and think "oh, this is another step in getting the free internet access I was promised with this computer." WRONG. |
