There is nothing stopping OEMs from uninstalling IE and putting anything else on there now. Nobody FORCES them to not include firefox or anything else. That would be a vilation of anitrust there.
Last I checked Dell includes google toolbars, desktop and other google crap on their computers, they also include either norton or mcaffee antivirus and not live oncare.
There is no need for Microsoft to be told that they can't include IE with windows. The fact that people have been using other browsers show that IE being included doesn't keep people from using other browsers.
I find it funny what people do and do not want included with Windows. They do no want free browser software, but they do want any other piece of software that you would normally have to buy. Antivirus, Office, DVD playback, full DVD/CD/Blu-Ray burning support.
If you don't like what Windows gives you then stop using it. Go use linux or a Mac. If you want to bitch about those not having what you need to do what you want then just rember that is because people like you don't cause enough damand for it. It isn't Microsoft's fault that nobody wants to make either cross platform software or make software only for the other OSs.
