    I have a question for all you computer gurus out there. As stated, I have a T235-S1350, brand new, and I understand that these come with a significant amount of bloatware. Mine is one of those and I want to speed it up. I only use the computer for business/school work, so I'm mainly using just the internet and Microsoft Office stuff.

    What bloatware is not necessary for the computer? Will it increase my boot time? And I believe I just get rid of it through the add/remove programs window.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    I have the T215 and I don't recall there being that much crapware loaded on it but I always do a clean install and only install the bare minimum vendor required software.

    I couldn't be happier with my T215. It's quite snappy and Windows 7 performs very well.
