My most recent look at this problem was disheartening to say the least. Instead of continuing to whine, I decided to see what I could do about the problem. I started with a Sony VAIO VGN-NR185 laptop. The same one used in the \u00ef\u00bf\u00bdFrom Bloat To Craplet\u00ef\u00bf\u00bd article. This first laptop uses an Intel Core2 Duo 1.6 GHz processor and 1024 MB of memory. I've always liked the VAIO from Sony but the recent problem with craplets and Sony's position on DRM has led me to safer alternatives. I wanted to see how much time it took to clear this machine of the headaches installed by Sony."}
