"It ain't half bad once you turn off the Fisher-Price interface."

- A technician describing the then-new Windows XP to me in 2002

Any of the big companies are gonna bundle a bajillion bits of bullshit into their OS. i've got a folder on my phone full of crap Google won't let me delete off Android. It's much like the folder full of crap Apple wouldn't let me delete off iOS. On the desktop you can kill stuff and hopefully it won't break things... but I mean, on the Windows side of things, iTunes is an optional virus. On the OS X side of things it's in the finder.
