Don't fall for this M$ propaganda. IE, Media Player and the rest are
JUST Windows applications. They can be removed. The *only* thing that
*might* suffer is the on-line help if it uses HTML or video. These
features could just as easily use another browser or player as long as
M$ documents the interface they use.

In fact, I believe that they are required to offer a stripped version of
Windows for OEMs in Europe (or somewhere) because of a court case they
just lost.
