To be fair, Nicu, and me going back to the version I know best....XP,
Windows doesn't really offer a mail/calendar/etc client, voIP/video,
word processor, or much of a photo viewer with simple editing, out of
the box. Not sure where exactly to get Outlook, but it's not there by
default. MS Word and Office in general is one of their real cash cows
and they keep that seperate, video/VoIP you have to go download MSN
Messenger. Regarding a browser, yeah they include IE but really the best
use for that is downloading Firefox, which we offer by default.
I beg to disagree... I'm no M$ apologist, but XP is a longshot of their
*current* offerings. Besides, XP (for those netbooks that are still
sold with it) DOES offer media capabilities, browser and e-mail client,
Outlook Express is installed by default with XP.
