Default Does Vista Actually Want 18 Gigabytes Of Disc Space?

Today, D. Spencer Hines made these interesting comments ...

You are certainly right about that.

But they are pushing it VERY Aggressively.

Well, I refuse to let MS install IE7 and will continue to do
so while a breath is left in my XP body.


No matter what we have been told or led to believe, no one can
force you to do anything you do not want to do, just as a salesman
no matter how good can sell you on something you do not want to
buy. However, in both examples YOU must take decisive action to
prevent an unwanted conclusion. In my case, I prevent Windows from
auto updating my PC 100%, I have both of them set to "notify only
but do not download or install". And, I have opted out of the IE7
auto install gambit. But, them who allow another to take away their
freedoms deserve exactly what they get, and I am NOT referring at
all specifically to MS, as other software developers do similar
things, as do cell phone providers, PDA sellers, car makers, anyone
who deals in modifiable computer code.
