OK... are the Windows games REALLY necessary to run Windows?

Category Microsoft

Over the last few weeks, I've deleted some of the Windows games that tend to suck time away from things I really *should* be doing.  So Hearts, Spider Solitare, and regular Solitare have been deleted from my hard drive.

But I just LOVE how when I delete those, Windows XP comes up with a message telling me that essential files necessary for running Windows have been deleted, and I should restore them from my backup CDs.  

Yeah, right...

Gravatar Image2 - D'oh! I apparently made a bad decision not to read and review that particular book. :)
