    I have two tablets, a Lenovo (I won on line) and a Simban with a
    keyboard.
    The Lenovo came loaded with all sorts of apps (90 per cent I don't use)
    and can't get rid of them. I've tried uninstall programs to no avail.
    The Simban will accept uninstall apps and I can get rid of a lot of stuff
    I don't want or need any longer.
    I use plug the Simban into the desktop and check its directory but with
    the Lenovo nothing even shows up.
    I think its a plot to keep people buying no ones.

    Likely. I don't like Lenovo -- I had an IBM Thinkpad 4.0, bought not knowing it had a sound bug so it wouldn't play sound.

    I contacted IBM,. & was shunted to lenovo who had bought their home computing division.

    Lenovo gave me a link on their site to fix the issue, & I downloaded the file, direct from them, & it was virus-infected, which I found out after the virus installed itself..

    Took me almost 4 days to manually clean my computer! (I didn't have the Win95 disk, to format & start fresh, so had to do it the hard way, manually going through Regedit. . . & so ended my years of only buying IBM-branded computers!

    I only have the 486 desktop left, not plugged in at the mo, but I got to get it back up & running -- I miss DOS. . .
