It's amazing that Windows hasn't got even a tiny back-to-basics PDF viewer included by itself. (Or maybe the more recent versions do?)

I've been using evince (or whatever it is that ships with Ubuntu this year) for years and never even considered that there might be a case where one would want to install a separate PDF viewer. Before that, xpdf was the standard reader and it was enough, too. Maybe Linux desktop isn't that bad all together.



Windows 7 has an XPS Viewer (Microsoft's attempt to replace PDF).
