(Something heat Windows 3.11 could not do.)Good article. Even though DATED March 23, 2001, it's still quite relevant.I remember years ago, when the new Windows versions was started to referred to bloatware Bill Gates kept SAYING, don't worry about it, the hardware will catch up. Well, the hardware has far surpassed the software bloatware problem.I liked the point made regarding disk space- the space a "bloated" program consumes today compared to it's predecessor cost a lot less. 5 MB on a 10MB DRIVE is "bloat", and consumes half the "price" of the hard drive in space, And back then they cost a LOT, but a 400MB version of that program on a 80GB hard drive is probably a fraction of a cent.Excellent article. Thank You.
