Cultural Mosaic writes "Browser market share figures for September were released yesterday, and the numbers showed a big dip for Internet Explorer, as it dropped to just 82.10%, its lowest market share figure in years. Ars Technica notes that 'it's no surprise that Internet Explorer has been losing ground steadily over the past couple of years. There have been no significant innovations in the browser since XP SP2 was released over two years ago, and most of those were security tweaks.' Firefox grew from 10.77% in June to 12.46% while Safari jumped to its highest figure ever, 3.53%. I wonder how the release of Firefox 2.0 and IE 7 later this month will change the game?"

And IE is damn sure to start recovering ground with IE7 and Vista, this is a very culminating point for Firefox, to see in what measure they will be able to resist Vista and continue pushing their brand.

Robert McLaw from Windows Now writes: Ed Bott tells us about changes to the Windows Vista EULA. But that's not the whole story. Starting on Page 11, here is a synopsis of what I believe are the most far-reaching changes, as I have interpreted them:
Home Basic
* Can't copy ISO to your hard drive
* Can't install to a network server
* You may share files, printers, etc with a maximum of 5 network devices
* You MAY NOT use Remote Desktop, only Remote Assistance
* You MAY NOT use in Virtual PC | Virtual Server |VMWare
Home Premium
* Still can't copy ISO to your hard drive
* Still can't install to a network server
* Sharing for 10 network devices
* Still no Remote Desktop
* Still no virtual hardware
* 5 simultaneous Media Center Extender sessions (up from 3 in MCE 2005)
Ultimate
* Can copy ISO to your hard drive
* Can install to a network server (I'm assuming for Terminal Server scenarios)
* Sharing for 10 network devices
* Can use Remote Desktop
* Can use in a virtualized environment, BUT
* Can't use DRM-protected content if Vista Ultimate is the "guest" OS
* Can't use BitLocker if Vista Ultimate is the "guest" OS
* 5 Media Center Extender sessions

Yes, because ISO's is how you distribute linux, that's eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil. So if you want to download an ISO and burn to cd to install linux, you'll have to do that on your WinXP system, or your ridiculously overpriced Windows Vista Ultimate Freedom and Democracy Edition.

Well it's mentioned that this is in the EULA. So it's unclear whether there are technical measures against it. Of course, knowing MS, I somehow doubt they would tell you 'you can't do this' and then let you do it anyway. Frankly I don't see how, would they check the file headers to see if they match the ISO filetype and then block the file transfer or something? That sounds so petty, kindergarden stuff really.

Are you saying that when you install Windows you do not anxiously skip to the EULA page to spend an hour on it? 
Btw most users never _see_ the EULA, Windows comes pre-installed and the EULA is printed in point 4 font on some piece of paper they never bother to read.
