Shhhhhhh... it's not a tax; it's actually. The reason that so many OEMs load up their new machines with "craplets" is because they get paid good money by the publishers of these apps to load them on. That in turn reduces the price of a PC by more than what an OEM Windows licence costs. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org>
