What would you choose?

So the time has come where computers won't necessarily be presumed to be owned by an Internet Explorer user.

I don't actually see the point of neglecting to add one - I think it's pretty fair that a Microsoft OS should have a Microsoft browser included in it.

I don't use IE, opting for Mozilla FireFox myself. Still have IE on the system, but rarely do I use it. If a computer doesn't come with a web-browser automatically, how would you get to choose what one you want to install? :p

EDIT: I should have read it more carefully - you get a choice screen on set-up.

Still, if I want to try the others, I just download them as and when required...

Ahhh I can see this going until he changes it, at which point you will both look like fools :D

Either way I use both, and am happy. A screen for each = good times.

It must be so hard to click an icon to load a browser from either the desktop or start menu.

Wait...how does one normally open IE anyway?

So the choice for using another browser already exists?

I didn't know that Firefox, Chrome, Safari, etc, are installable on Windows! I better download an update to make sure!!!
