Let's be honest, we all know Windows is shit; the only reason we use it is because Linux is ass for games in comparison to Windows.

 

I think if Linux was equally good for gaming and everything else, we'd almost all be using it.

Another vote for Windows 10, but I'm a little torn on how angry I should be at them. Perhaps they should alter the bloat-load depending on the version of Windows 10, or reduce it once Windows is activated (maybe they already do, wouldn't know). I'm sure the bloatware has an integral and critical role in their long term plans, we wouldn't want Microsoft to crumble, right? Being able to turn Live Tiles off and uninstalling apps directly from Start Menu are definitely appreciated.

 

Before the constant access to Internet, every random software Windows came with had a potential of entertaining you for a few moments, those were awful times, but fun to recall now. Who knows, squirrels are working awfully hard to destroy the Internet, so we might soon need all the bloatware we can get our hands on to keep us entertained.

McAfee, hands down. I could not uninstall it from my friends computer. It said:

Any bloatware that comes on a sub-$500 laptop or PC from a big box store. Update assistants that break Windows, trials of software that you'll never even use once, antivirus trials that automatically start after Windows Setup is done, then nag you forever that YOUR PC WILL BE INFECTED IF YOU DON'T BUY SUPERMEGAULTRA ANTIVIRUS EXTREME EDITION FOR 299.99 A YEAR _{(other lower prices available)}

 

Take your pick. I hate them all.

Have you ever had to setup a brand new Acer computer for someone who is coming from Windows XP and tried to remove all the bloatware? Yeah..
