Users of the next version of windows would lose a lot by switching to another search engine

err.... you wanna read that again - seems to be lacking in logic to me.

Why would I not be able to use any search engine I wish in conjuction with whatever MS chose to thrust at us? (rhetorical)

IE is embedded in Windows, but I still choose not use it.

If MSN's new search isn't better than Google or Yahoo then I won't use it and I won't lose anything either.

What they gonna do, send the heavies round to make sure I don't use 2 search engines at once? (yes, I know they could probably afford to, but its not that likely, is it?)

So, what exactly is it that I am going to lose?
