Decrapify Your PC or Buy A Mac
October 3, 2007 – 6:16 am
So you’re finally going to break down and buy a new computer for the family – maybe one of those new, dual core hot rods. If you have never bought a new PC before, you may be in for a surprise when you boot it up the first time. Chances are that your “new” computer is going to look like it has been hooked up to the internet for a month – without any spyware protection. Your brand new (fill in the name of your computer here) PC will probably boot up with a series of pop up advertisements encouraging you buy anti-virus software, sign up for Napster or any of a multitude of other services. If that isn’t bad enough, your desktop will be covered with shortcuts to ‘special offers’ and the system tray will already packed with programs that “phone home” regularly to make sure that the software that you didn’t want to begin with stays current.
All of this “crap” is loaded on your new PC because Dell, HP and others sell advertising space on your new PC so they can squeeze out a couple of more bucks of profit at your expense. Sucks, doesn’t it?
Maybe, you should “Decrapify” your new computer and return it to its original glory. The PC Decrapifier attempts to remove all of the crap on your PC that you never asked for or wanted. The PC Decrapifier will automatically detect the ‘crap’ on your system then let you choose what to uninstall. By the way, did I mention it’s free (as in beer). Check it out!
Oh, and one more thing. . . another way to avoid this mess is to buy a Mac. If you have been thinking about buying a Mac but you want to see one in action before you take the leap, just send me an e-mail at rich@rlsei.com. For the price of a large coffee, I will be happy to meet you at the Mill Mountain in Salem and demonstrate why I think the MacBook is the ideal computer for most home users. Did you know that you can even run a complete copy of Windows on your Mac, just in case you need training wheels to get started or you have that one Windows-only work application that you just have to use. The other great thing – you won’t have to “Decrapify” your new MacBook!
