    So my new A3J is showing up today from proportable - what, if anything, do I do to/with it initially to get it fired up?

    I've heard about re-partitioning it, and trying to cleanse it of bloatware. Advice from the local experts would be appreciated.

    FYI - I have at best ordinary person tech experience - I don't qualify as a tech geek. Also, it doesn't need to be tweaked/fixed to the utmost level - I'm a big believer in the 80/20 rule. Thanks all!

    On the first day you should enjoy your new computer. If that gets old after 6 or 7 hours, then you can clean the one maybe two programs that you don't want from it. Repartitioning isn't a huge deal, it doesn't sound like you will be too concerned with that. Just enjoy it.
