Basically its like this: All retail computers come loaded with Norten Anti-Virus, Wild Tangent, HP or Dell support BS, America On-line Free trial, easy internet sign up, etc and the list goes on forever. You fire one up, and it runs like a snail because its got 200 running processes from all the pre-installed garbage. The reason I want to do this is so instead of having to go through the OS and uninstall all the crap, it would already be gone!
