So you picked up a new Windows 7 laptop (or desktop) or you’re planning on buying one in the very near future?
If you took a look at display models in stores like Best Buy or Frye’s, you no doubt noticed that new systems come with a lot of programs pre-installed. Lots of software is a good thing, right? Not always.
Trouble is, what you get is often a) not really useful software or b) a time-limited trial. Office 2007 and the antivirus protection the salesperson told you about? They’re 60 day trials. After that, they’re going to ask you to pay up…But you don’t have to.
No, you can tell those apps to keep their hands off your credit card! With all the great, free software Download Squad has covered over the years, there’s really no need to burden your new system with that kind of software timebomb.
With just two simple apps you can quickly strip away all the bloatware (that’s what us techy types call the excess crud preinstalled on your new system) and get yourself a nice selection of totally free software that will never expire!
