[QUOTE="Lastmboy, post: 1405126, member: 246992"] Ya, but then you've got printers showing up in your device list that don't actually exist. With all the crap Windows install, I now have 13 printers to choose from when I want to print a document... and I just removed 2. I actually know what two of them are (my Epson printer and Adobe PDF). This is fairly minor, but it's just another example of why your Windows pc doesn't work worth a crap a year after you install Windows. Hundreds of these little things add up over time to bog down the registry, hard drives, USB controllers, etc. I'll admit that part of it is that I'm a neat freak, and I don't like having junk around that doesn't need to be there. The joke of the matter is... I just looked in my device list and the printer I removed is back again, although it's greyed out a bit, now. :'( [/QUOTE]
