    i don't know if this is the right place for this thread so let me know. i just got my T61p, but i want to get rid of all the bloatware and just keep what i absolutley need so the laptop will startup faster than it does because it seems kind of slow. any suggestions?

    Also refer to the ThinkVantge Software Guide which gives a description of the ThinkVantage software installed on your T61p so that you can make the decision of whether you want to keep those programs or not.
