Pre-installed software has gotten kind of ridiculous, I agree. It typically takes me a couple hours to clean most of the stuff off a new system.
As for reformatting, if you're running Windows Vista / 7, Windows Update does a pretty fine job of finding drivers for everything. The only thing I ever have to find by hand is video drivers.

This program comes to mind, works well to get rid of a lot of PC bloatware that comes pre-installed when purchasing a PC from a retailer (but sometimes, not all)

A major Tea Party affiliated Republican being voted out, in what is one of the most conservative congressional districts in Arizona, in favor of a moderate. Ripples of this will be felt for a long way.

Some people talk because they have something to say. Others talk because they have to say something.
