As if this were really true these days

Quote:-

"Customers like the reduced footprint of WinTPC – the machines they will likely use it on often have less disk space than brand new machines and WinTPC helps to ensure they will have adequate space,

Is the Windows 7 Bloat that bad these days?

Is the cost of a 40Gb HDD really so extortionate?

Or is this to make space for all the other multi GB of BLOATWARE that OEM's insist on loading on top of Windows before they ship their PC's?

Actually it is rather difficult to find a PC with anything less that a 160Gb HDD these days.

Mines the one with very large pockets. In them I have at least one DEC RK05 2.4Mb disk pack.
