hate quicktime, hate realplayer.

bandwidth hogs that do all kinds of shit to your computer, just so you can watch some previews and south park clips.

norton anti virus is also a hog. just find viruses, don't give me some fluffy p***y options i don't need! just GET RID OF THE VIRUSES AND LEAVE ME ALONE.

other than that looks like a solid list.

wtf is weatherbug?

I want to buy a P2 with Win95 on it or something so I can play all of my good ol' DOS games. Those were the best.

Games like, uh, well none come to mind right now, but uh, I'm sure I could find one. Daggerfall! There we go. And Wing Commander 3! And TIE-Fighter!!!!!! And Aces of the Deep! Those games rule.
