    What do these programs on my dv6000t do? Some are obvious, like the Quick launch Buttons, but others are named a bit less obviously. I'm trying to do some bloatware cleanup without a full reinstall of the OS.

    Everything can go except QuickPlay and QuickLaunch.

    I did remove them all except those two and the HP Wireless Assistant. ... and the HP Easy Setup - Core, which will not uninstall.

    I ran into that as well. I do think it was uninstalled, but the Vista program listing has been quirky since the betas, as some apps tend to stay on the list indefinitely even after getting rid of them.

    So delete all programs except the ones listed above?

    That is what I did; all the programs shown in the earlier post's picture except those three.
