Problem
Microsoft: We're not gouging Europe on Windows 7 pricing Regulators in the European Union have charged Microsoft with illegally tying Internet Explorer (IE) to Windows and mandated that a version of Windows be offered stripped of IE. A news report suggested that when Microsoft launches Windows 7, it will charge a higher price for the IE-stripped version than the price for a full version that includes IE. Microsoft denied this report but announced that it would offer the full version of Windows 7 at a lower upgrade price.
How does Microsoft set the price of Windows and would it be in the firm's self-interest to set a different price for a version stripped of IE?
