I've been eagerly awaiting the release of Windows 7 for a while now, unlike any previous version of Windows I actually feel interested in this one.
Up until recently Microsoft had planned to release a unique version of the browser in Europe dubbed "Windows 7 E", this version was meant to come without Internet Explorer hard coded into the OS but now that plan has been changed again. The new plan is to release the same version of 7 here and the rest of the world but we will recieve a ballot screen offering a choice of browsers.
While personally I don't really care which browser comes preinstalled as the first thing i'll be doing is adding in every other browser but its a real show of how Microsoft are trying to get around European competition laws.
So now all I can do is wait for the first ship dates.
