RE: "Answers to this kind of question shed light on whether MS is tying IE and Windows ... which, of course, it is.."

The question is not debatable, of course they have. However it's my opinion that the major OEM's will continue to bundle WINDOWS with IE regardless of the courts ruling.

[Or, put it another way, would MS give away IE for 'free' if the OEM didn't buy Windows as well? ]

Since this is exactly what they're doing with the Mac version, the answer is 'yes'.
