I didn't get as much info as I wanted..but I did find out that it is one more thing ACER has put on this computer. I used think that Dell/Compaq was the worst about putting useless proprietary crap on a computer. However, ACER takes the prize. There is so much software on this machine that ACER put on that it is just TOTALLY ridiculous.
