The Mufffet Manor

The best software out there is free.  Paid software is always bloated.  If you have a piece of paid software that isn't bloated that is because it hasn't been around long enough to become bloated.  It will become bloated.

Software developers (and you know who I mean Micrsoft, Nero and Roxio) take note that if your software is lean, please leave it that way.  Don't go adding "featutures".  We don't want "features".  We want lean, bug free software.  Spend your time doing bug fixes instead of adding more bugs aka features.

How often do you hear, "My computer runs so slow.", or "my computer takes forever to boot"?  That is thanks to bloatware.

Do yourself a favour and uninstall Nero and install imgburn or cdburnerxp.  I cannot recommend those programs highly enough.
