When I got Vista two years ago on my brand-new laptop, I was annoyed at all

and Ebay. I learned to keep my hard drive clean, and I make sure to remove
old files.

I remember having to reboot multiple times when I got Vista for the first
time, too. Just when I thought things were over- here came another
restart!
