Not me. Haven't bought anything that came with windows SW for years.

Nope, I've bought CD writers and DVD writers and none came with any
bundled SW.

My 1st PC came with W3.1. I had to order it special though as I wanted
and English version. Second PC I got a SFr.75 reduction for not having
windows.

I bought W95 boxed set on a whim because a local shop had an English
version. Total waste of moeny. I was better off with W3.1 and PC Tools
for windows which gave me multiple desktops. Of course it wouldn't run
on W95.

The windows nuts who think they are getting SW for free are the real
idiots.
