New laptop - Clean install? Or use some of the bundled software?
I just purchased an Acer TimelineU M5-481TG 6814.
I noticed a lot of bloatware, and started uninstalling what I could tell was useless. There is still 40 or so gigabytes taken up. This seems much larger than just the operating system and a few programs.
I already burned recovery DVDs using Acer eRecovery.
Should I clean install Windows 7? The laptop comes with a 20gb SSD and a 500gb 5400 HDD, and I feel it could run best with the operating system on the SSD and everything else on the HDD. Would it be a hastle to get the laptop to full functionality?
What should I do?
