That's our filter number one. Filter number two, money. There is a stiff barrier of entry here. Companies will do cost benefit analysis to determine such investments will justify. If their investment gets uninstalled at the first hour of usage, companies will dump the deal in no time.<br><br>Scott, we don't want anti-anything.

No one really needs that Google crap. Imagine getting your computer with no Internet Explorer, Media Player, Outlook and as some people dare to say, an OS. How are you gonna download any alternatives if your comp doesn't come with a browser? Telnet? What if you just want your comp to watch videos immediately, but it has no media player? Now how important is Google's crap, especially considering there are like a million alternatives, especially for the toolbar. So this is a dumb move, and really can't be compared to what MS does. When Google can bundle something useful (like an OS) then it just may be nearly a good idea.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[RazorElite]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2006 7:52PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell/Google may do $1 billion bundling deal]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/07/dell-google-may-do-1-billion-bundling-deal/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/02/07/dell-google-may-do-1-billion-bundling-deal/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oh, I'm not a Firefox fanboy, but I'm indeed a Google fanboy.
