Firefox and Microsoft, sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

Going through the usual RSS feeds on weekend to day and I stumble into this: Firefox with Bing. Basically, it's a special Mozilla Firefox version which uses Bing as the default search engine. I thought, what's the big deal, you can always change the default search engine anytime. Then I read this: http://www.muktware.com/news/2827 and thought that there may be some deal with it.

I read on and decided to check it out the website at www.firefoxwithbing.com and this is what I get (screenshot below). Note that I am doing this on a Debian machine.


And there it is folks! The very first web page that greets a Debian user: discrimination! And we all know it was Microsoft's IE that brought down Netscape Navigator (which was owned by Mozilla).
