De-Cluttered My Computer - Friday, November 12, 2004
At Raymond's prompting, I did major cleanup on my computer and freed like 5 gigs. Man, do I feel freeeeee! I deleted a few movies after burning them to CD's. I uninstalled programs that I don't use, such as Microsoft Money and Paint Shop Pro (I have the install files on CD anyway, if I ever change my mind). I deleted MSDN, a programmer's reference manual that I never use, which took up 1.9 gigs! I also re-installed my C++ editor with only the necessary features.
I also changed settings in some programs to make them not automatically check for updates and not load unnecessary features. Finally, I uninstalled AIM. GAIM is 9435276232 times better!
