I'd be amazed if anyone picked a browser they'd never heard of, which is what Safari will be to Joe Average, Phone and Touch notwithstanding
Either way, this story's a long way from over

Mozilla's fault for not calling themselves Aardvark! Still Opera, the biggest cry babies in this p***ing contest are even worse off Still, on the Windows 7 DVD I got in the post this week, there was no ballot screen, IE 8 was installed without any questions. |

How can they design a ballot that has no bias towards any browser? Maybe a 5 pointed star with a browser name at the end of each point? She's crying because Mozilla comes near the end. I doubt she would be crying that the ballot was biassed if FF was first?! |

It’s alphabetical. Perhaps he should have not called the company Mozilla, but AAA++ Browsers Co instead of Mozilla. |

It's alphabetical and the EU said they were happy with that. Alphabetical order seems logical - which ever way MS did it someone would not be happy

Well I expect a rush of browser to be renamed Aardvark or Aaardvark or Aaaaardvark.

I'm sure Mozilla can change their name to Amozilla! |

Yes even so I do not think that is a great method either. Most people do not refer to the browser by manufacturer then the browser. Safari should be further down the listings |
