They should ship a version with Firefox as the browser and VLC as the media player. :D

I am hating the EU. They should have both versions. One with IE and media player and one without both and other programs. Or at least the one without IE inclueded with another browser. They can't leave media player out of the same one without IE. Because they can get critisized for not leaving it in for people who like it like me.

:D:DI have nothing against it...As master chief said joking, I prefer to have a choice, I don't use IE at all, and prefer far VLC player than WMP ! There is lot of open source players which are much better than MS things...:D:D
