How Random Is Microsoftâs Random Browser Choice Screen In Europe?

,----[ Quote ]
| More than once out of every four hits, the 
| page would show Google Chrome on the far 
| left, and Internet Explorer would only make 
| it to the first spot in 13,8% of page loads 
| (scoring well below all four other 
| browsers). In fact, in over 50% of all page 
| hits, Internet Explorer would come out to 
| the far right spot of the five browser 
| choices shown on the screen.

A Tale of Two Ballot Screens

| Who in their right mind would opt for that? 
| Given that Microsoft has come up with a good 
| design for the browser ballot, it should be 
| pressed to do the same for ODF as well. Even 
| if it does, ODF will be faced with the same 
| recognition problem as Firefox does, but at 
| least it will be doing so fighting on a 
| level playing field.

| This is in compliance with a December European
| Commission antitrust agreement that stops it
| from pushing its own Internet Explorer
| exclusively, and is likely to mean a market-
| share hike for Googleâs Chrome, Firefox and
| Opera, whose complaint to the EC kicked off
| its year-long competition inquiry.
