Computer users in Europe who buy new hardware based on Microsoft's Windows operating system will no longer be tied to using the company's Internet Explorer web browser, the European Commission said on December 16.
"The European Commission has adopted a decision that renders legally binding commitments offered by Microsoft to boost competition on the web browser market," said a statement on the latest front in their epic anti-trust battle.
"Microsoft commits to offer European users of Windows choice among different web browsers and to allow computer manufacturers and users the possibility to turn Internet Explorer off."
