I don't know about anyone else, but these cutsie-ass "features" are a waste
of MY disk space, and a waste of MY RAM.  I hope that someone at Microsoft
reads this and passes along my feelings that they should spend their time
making Windows SMALLER, FASTER, and LESS BUG-RIDDEN (along with decreasing
the amount of time I have to wait on hold on their automated phone system :-(
instead of making me pay for these useless, stupid "features"!
