He had to spend £250 for XP PRO in order to run the website locally. Of course, they had Windows XP Home on the laptop for no discernable reason.

I told them that we could install the website onto the laptop so that it could be demoed from the client’s laptop. I once wrote an ASP website, and the client wanted to demonstrate the new ordering system at a trade show, but there was no internet connection there. If they can offer this then why shouldn’t Microsoft be expected to offer consumers the same flexibility? This would be similar to how SUSE Linux from Novell works and other Linux developers. Otherwise the option to uninstall Microsoft applications should still be made available such as removing MSN Messenger with out depending on IE for example. Microsoft should be able to make all Windows Vista versions with the ability for a consumer to select during installation of the OS whether they want an application made by Microsoft installed or a third party. The other issue is with applications such as MSN Messenger will only work with IE, not third party browsers such as Firefox.
The issue with Windows is up till now Microsoft has gone happily along with making it difficult to uninstall one of their software applications with out breaking something. While I’m not a fan of Microsoft I believe all distributions, Windows, Linux and OSX come with a default set-up that includes a browser and media players.
