The new Windows browser selection screen
21st February 2010
In a sudden shift in direction Google has won the right in the biggest court of America to force Microsoft to change tack in the ongoing saga (not the insurance company) of the browser selection screen. The new screen is touted as being far more streamlined, and in the long run is better for the consumer. A Microsoft spokesperson, T. De-ville, has said in a press release that the new streamlined screen is, on the whole of it, better for consumer choice and, in the long run, better for the Interweb at large. He also said that whilst Microsoft wasn't totally happy with the screen, that it does at least bode well for the Interweb and that control was not an issue for Microsoft. They only want what's best for people. This further new screen has yet to be finalised, so you may end up seeing the original browser selection screen.
