I'm not defending Wordpad whatsoever. He suggested that MS would cop flak from the EU if they included those products in their OS, which they already do. Just because they're not as good as other offerings on the market is irrelevant. The fact is they're there, and MS doesn't cop flak over it - which is partly why I think the EU decisions up to date have been pretty pathetic. Disclaimer: I don't work for Microsoft, nor do I currently use their products (Linux user).
