Why?

"""We can strip out Media Player and IE out of XP today using third party apps, but why should be have to go to the trouble and expense of doing that AFTER we have been forced to buy a bunch of insecure junk that we didn't want to begin with?"""

If you wanted all the stuff you wrote about and feel the way you say you do in the part I cited, then just why did you buy Microsoft? Did someone come and hold a gun on you or twist your arm or threaten to harm you family if you didn't?

Or was it because you wanted a new computer and instead of building it yourself or having someone build it and then loading whatever OS you wanted, you decided to buy one that had windows on it.

Bottom line, no one forced you to buy anything. You did it of your own free will. If it is not what you wanted or liked, you shouldn't have bought it.
