    I really feel stupid for posting this question in this forum, but here goes:
    I ordered a 1420 and when I get it I want to get rid of the programs, bloatware I don't need. No...I don't want to reinstall or reformat. I have read some of the things you have to do and basically I am probably lost by the time I read the 2nd step!!! So...can I just use the add/remove program thing and is there a program I can buy to clean up the rest of the files and stuff that the add/remove doesn't do? If so can you guys recommend a good, easy to use program that I can buy. I do remember someone taking about this but I cannot find that post. Thanks
