    I just got my first Asus laptop, an n61jq-xv1. I am way happy so far, but it came with a lot of ASUS junkware. I don't want to spend hours filtering out the good from the bad. Is there anything usefull there or should I trash it all and start with a clean system?

    Here is a list of the software already on my computer
    AI recovery burner
    Asus recovery
    Asus AP Blank
    Asus Copy Blank
    Asus Mult
    Control Deck
    e-driver
    Syncable desktops SE
    Asus Data Security
    Control Deck

    Any of these good, junk?
    What should I keep, or trash?

    Thanks
