Bloatware

Bloatware, otherwise known as pre-installed software, is software already installed and licensed on a computer or smartphone bought from an original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Sometimes it is piggybacked on other software installations. Microsoft Windows and Ubuntu Linux are notorious for this.

Why They Suck

 * 1) They hog up hard drive space and RAM, and therefore slow down your machine.
 * 2) Some of these apps are complete and utter crap that you don't want.
 * 3) Bloatware can perform mundane tasks that are non-essential to everyday computer use.

The Only Redeeming Quality

 * 1) Some bloatware can be used to pass time when one is bored.
