I can't see that flying. Is anyone going to ask Apple to stop
shipping their OS with Safari?
No, but Apple is hardly in a dominant position, and carrying
pre-installed alternatives to Safari can't be much of a problem.
Microsoft is in a "slightly" more dominant position, so a better control
of its practices sure wouldn't hurt. Delivering their OSes with half a
dozen pre-installed standard-compliant alternatives to IE/win isn't a
technical problem, so why not?
