Windows 7-E?
In Europe, due to regulations imposed on Microsoft, the company has announced that Windows 7 will not ship with the company's own Internet Explorer in Europe because of allegations that Microsoft was restricting choice to European consumers. Due to the removal of Internet Explorer, European customers will not be able to upgrade their Vista installations and will have to perform clean installations of Windows 7. Microsoft has said that it may offer the option to install Internet Explorer via Windows Update
