    I found them nice and useful.... until they started being really annoying with all the updates. So Uninstall it was. I only have ThinkVantage Battery Meter now.

    I remove the tool and add the stuff that I want. When I first received my t510, the computer felt bloated and was slow, a clean install fixed that problem.

    I use the Thinkvantage Power Manager and Hot Keys if that count. The rest I don't bother installing on my machines to save resources.
