[pchelpers] Microsoft Unbundling

I am thinking of getting a new PC.  Now that stores are liquidating their 
stocks of  Windows XP PCs the prices are coming down. More hard drive space and 
RAM  for less money than four years ago.  Ethernet card included.   I noticed 
that a browser was not included in the specifications.  Did the USA courts rule 
that Microsoft cannot include  Internet  Explorer with new PCs?
   
  At any rate Microsoft is just charging for the shipping of IE6 SP2.  So I 
felt it would be good to have.  Would I have saved $1.80  (US Dollars)  by not 
purchasing the IE 6 SP2  from Microsoft?    Is there a browser on new PCs?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
