Re: Microsoft Opening Up Vista Kernel To Security Vendors

There's nothing in the article I can see that says the changes made to satisfy the EU will be available in the EU only.

(There is some mention of Korea "getting a unique view" but I don't know what that means).

Re: Microsoft Opening Up Vista Kernel To Security Vendors

UPDATE 6-Microsoft makes changes to Vista in EU, S. Korea

»today.reuters.com/news/articlein···ype=qcna

It's that title that makes me wonder if the changes Microsoft agreed to are ONLY for the EU version (and Korea gets it own totally separate version according to another article).

To me it sounds like the changes are only for the EU.

EDIT: According to this article:

"Even with the changes, which will be included in all versions the company ships worldwide,..."

The article goes on to say that the European version and Korean will not have WMP and the Korean version will also not have Microsoft's IM software. So, it appears the other changes will be in all versions worldwide.
