Pre-installed crap on new laptop
So I took a look at this new HP laptop I got, and it's full of crap such as:
MS Office 2007 60-day trial
McAfee Antivirus trial
AOL search bar embedded in IE7
+ numerous HP tools and security software
The AOL thing annoyingly has no obvious uninstall method, and I'm sure I don't need half of the stuff on here (File Sanitizer?)
You don't get an OS disc with it either, it's all on a recovery partition.
Thinking it's going to take a while to go through and uninstall everything, would it not just be quicker to download a Vista OS disc and reinstall using the OEM key stuck to the bottom of the laptop?
