Windows Vista N will be even BETTER!

I totally agree. This is getting out of control. One thing I would hate to
see but MS may have to do is raise its prices over in the EU because of all
the fines that they have placed on MS. EU is now looking into Apple and
Windows VISTA. Looks like they have nothing better to do then to screw the
consumer in the long run.

I'm not sure the French have that much influence on the EU's decisions, and
in any case the "Program Access and Defaults" settings do *not* uninstall
anything. They just point to a given program for a specific function,
provided it has registered itself as capable of the function.

It removes references to the said programs, which considering the people
these EU leglislations are aimed at, has the effect of removing them.
