You gotta love Microsoft - or not, which is why I went to Apple several years ago. If you have bought a Windows computer you know that it comes filled to the brim with "bloatware" as PC World politely calls it, or crapware as most of the rest of us label it. These are trial programs and all sorts of nuisance software added at the factory which substantially slow down the performance of a new machine. Now, MS has a solution!!! You can upgrade to their "Signature" series computers that come sans the crapware or, if you have already bought one of their pieces filled to the point of having a brownish tinge, you can pay $99 to MS to remove the stuff they put on in the first place.
Genius. I am looking for the airlines trying to figure out how to work this angle for pricing their tickets. There is hope, though. Free software is available to do the same job and the name: Decrapifier! The URL appears below if you are a victim. Undoubtedly the Obama Administration is already working on banning this program because it puts so many crapware makers out of business.
