Ubuntu without pre-installed software?

[Eddie G. O'Connor Jr.]

Not for nothing, but I cease to always be amazed when someone 
"complains" about a certain distro not being "custom tailored" to their 
specific needs / wants / desires. I can appreciate the fact that a lot 
of the time there's usually software included with a distro that lots of 
people don't and WON'T use, but if it's that much of an issue for you 
then just delete it. Because if you stop and think about the "other" 
software company, you get what THEY give you whether you like it or NOT! 
And most times you cannot uninstall it. (Ever try removing Internet 
Explorer from Windows?...) My advice to you and others who feel that 
things aren't' EXACTLY the way you want it? Just "make" it your own! 
Whether it's software you need...or DON'T need...or things you want or 
DON'T want go ahead and make whatever changes you want....because THAT'S 
the REAL "beauty" and "attraction" of Linux.....the ability to make it 
as YOU like it!.....Sorry for ranting, but I just had to get that off my 
chest.....carry on!


Cheers!
