Default crapware...

hello! Does anyobdy know what all "crapware" should or CAN be unistalled on my new ACER aspireone 533??
My computer seems to be "thinking" an awfully lot longer that it should...I know it's not an ipad or anything, but I was wondering if any of the progams that came pre-installed were deleted, it would help...
Thanks!!!

Actually, having more pre-installed crapware would slow the computer down. Having it take a long time to complete tasks suggests that there is a large amount of pre-installed software running in the background. You can essentially uninstall 99.9% of pre-installed software when you get a new Windows desktop and that will actually help improve performance.

I suggest you look in the task manager to see what is running and how much resources are being used. The absolute best thing you can do to boost performance is reformat the hard drive and complete a fresh install of Windows. That will easily boost netbook performance by almost double.
