You don't have to tell me it needs it, but it didn't offer much 
trimming that I could see. There is something called TinyXP 
which you can DL from the usual places. It has its drawbacks - 
SOME things will not install/run unless you have ALL the MS 
garbage. But it IS tiny.

I was hoping for that, but it does not seem so. Unless Win6 and 
6.1 (AKA Vista and Win7) are just so insane that it is taking 
him THIS long to hack.
