    Well my brand new 2700 came today a lot sooner than I expected. I just now pulled it out of the box and have vista up and running. Ive noticed the large amount of trials and bloatware and such. So what should I do as of right now to make this system run very smoothly and have alot of this junk gotten rid of. Im not a novice with computer but not really knowledgeable like many of you are. Any help would be apreciated.

    It's very easy and near impossible to mess up if you follow the steps. It's a very thorough guide.

    With a clean install how much will be left and how much installing will i have to do with programs like media player and others that are pretty standard and not bloatware.

    Media Player is a Windows app.
