Hiding Internet Explorer
Why can’t Microsoft remove their browser from their products, instead of just hiding it somewhere in Windows?
———- from Meredith Ludwig of Chicago, IL
Some things simply cannot be known. We do know that Microsoft has plans to hide it better. They’ve just signed a deal with Disney to create ‘Where’s Explorer?’, a more sophisticated version of ‘Where’s Waldo?’, in which the annoying animated paper clip will give you misleading information as to Explorer’s whereabouts somewhere on your hard drive. In a related development, Microsoft will incorporate the entire US Department of Justice into Windows 2000. They’re just sit there twiddling their thumbs until double-clicked. Of course, the embedded DOJ will be much easier to delete than Internet Explorer.
