"Senate Judiciary Committee staffers plan to take a look [http://thehill.com/blogs/hillicon-valley/technology/226825-overnight-tech-judiciary-staffers-to-look-at-microsoft-competition-allegations] at allegations [http://www.osnews.com/story/25935/Mozilla_Google_voice_concern_over_Windows_8_browser_restrictions] that Microsoft has made it difficult for competing Web browsers to run on a certain version of Windows, an aide to Antitrust subcommittee Chairman Herb Kohl told The Hill Thursday." Good. We have to nip this in the bud, and with a bit of luck, it alerts Washington to the iOS situation as well. More browser competition equals a better web - mobile devices aren't magically exempt from this just because they have no keyboard. As simple as that.
