I have been noticing this horrendous trend for years - brand new PCs
bundled with more shareware applications than you can shake a stick at.
Even though some companies do indeed, offer straightforward Windows CDs
without the extra trialware included, others still insist on giving you
the Recovery CD-only option. This whole practice is outdated, annoying
and sickening.
