No, I was talking about all the ad **** that comes pre-loaded on new machines. Tim had made a typo,
which got me on a different track. Both machines I'm looking at come with Windows 7 - not that piece
of crap Vista.


I haven't bought a preloaded machine since 1995. I know they do come
with a load of crap. My wife spent an hour cleaning up her dad's new
laptop. I don't know why they make a brand new machine slower than it
has to be.


Sort of a devious way of advertising really. Load in a "trial" version
of some crap you don't want or need. Hook and bait.
