Hi all,
I have read comments about the bloatware which comes preinstalled in the TX and SZ series. People have started from scratch by formatting the hard disk and reinstalling the operating system. But that and tracking down drivers sounds challenging.
I know one can make their own recovery dvd set, which would include the bloat, unfortunately. Has anyone tried starting over using the recovery dvd set brought from Sony?: "A set of DVD's that includes the Microsoft Windows program, plus any original Sony software and device drivers included with the PC. The recovery DVD Assembly does not include any Word processing software, 3rd-party programs, or games."

Also, the TXN-15 just came out but I wonder what the VGN-TXN19P/17P are that are alluded to in the weblink. This is my first post! I'm hoping to buy a TXN soon- just waiting to see how the TXN-10 models shake out before I take the plunge.
Thanks.
