Time for reduction of bloatware
Milan Kundera wrote once that there are two ways to define the self. Addition and Subtraction. Every couple months I go into subtraction mode on my PC, getting rid of software I don't use and is clogging up my PC. My laptop has less than 2% free space on a 100gig drive, so it is time. Here are some of the things going away, no longer useful.
Microsoft Works (use office)
Thunderbird (use outlook)
ITunes (hate it)
Rhapsody (ibid)
Bittorrent (moved to server)
SKype
Azeraus
Apple Software Udate
Apple Mobile device support
Client Security Solution (wah?)
uTorrent
GD Bloomberg gadget
HP Customer Participation Program (200mb!)
IRI portal
Java 5 (kept 6)
MS office Communicator
Panatech PC Card Software
Sonic Wall VPN
Sprint Mobile Broadband
Thinkpad presentation center
WinAmp Remote
