Yesterday I bought a new Asus laptop, an X52JT (Cheap model, but it is only for web and chat).
When I started Windows 7, I was shown (as expected) the license agreement dialog, which contained 2 sections (didn't do a screenshot :():
Windows license agreement, with a note that I must accept it to use Windows 7.
Bing Bar license agreement, with a note that I must accept it to use the computer.
And I can't continue without accepting the 2 license agreements.
My question is why is this Bing Bar a must to use the computer? I want to use Windows but not the Bing Bar !!!!
I had to accept (offline, so microsoft didn't know that I accepted ;)) to check that the computer was working correctly, but later (after seeing it swarming with useless utilities, games and Windows Live stuff) I formatted and Installed my own Windows 7 Home premium from a retail dvd, with no Bing Bar.
