i went to delete a program demo from my program files tonight. after months of trying to find the perfect video editor, it seems a have a LOT of programs to delete - more than i would have imagined possible. i've been deleting for 10 solid minutes.
how about you? do you delete a trial as soon as you know you're not interested in the full version or do they sometimes back up?
I delete crap every few months...I get all, "OMG I hate this machine because it is soooo slooooww...what can I do to make it faster?" And then remember all the crap I installed.
Usually speeds things up tremendously.
I'm about as neurotic about my PC as house keeping, I delete anything and everything the minute I am finished with it and empty my recycle bin at least a dozen times a day. :P
LOL im the same way, im probably the only person in our family who's desktop has about 5 icons on it constantly, including the recycle bin, my computer and my documents LOLQuote:

There's about 120 programs in there. Time for a second drive I think. Best Buy was pretty much giving them away a couple months back, but I didn't want to deal with all the mail in rebates.
i also treat my PC the same was as my housekeeping - and we won't discuss the mountain of papers on my desk or the stacks of books everywhere.
in fact, now i think of it, my program files folder was a LOT like my house :D
