Preedit writes "A free download that can cut Windows Vista's gargantuan
footprint by half or more is developing a big following on the
Internet. vLite is a configuration tool that lets users automatically
delete a lot of unnecessary Vista components — such as Windows Media
Player and MSN installer — to pare the OS down to a reasonable size.
The software is catching on. An InformationWeek story notes that a
forum that asks users to suggest new features has drawn nearly 50,000
page views. Meanwhile, Microsoft officials have themselves conceded
that Vista is "bloated" and are developing the next version of Windows
on a core called MinWin, which is smaller than Vista by an order of
magnitude."
