I think I can agree with both of those.
I received a new development machine a while back, and I've already neutered a couple parts of the McAfee crap because of its unwillingness to ... attend to my requests not to f*** with me.

Yeah. Unusable client software maybe annoying, but bad low level services really kill a machine. I have McAfee forced on me at the moment by my client and it turns what is a fairly decently specced machine into a 1990s style brick.

I hated working with InstallShield, I always assumed it was because I was working with an outdated copy, but it sounds like it didn't have too many fans huh?
I eventually switched my projects to InnoSetup and never looked back.![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif)

I would never by their product because the name is entirely ignorant.

I worked for them in '05. Great company and fantastic tech team at that time but I've no idea what it is like now

You will have plenty to keep you busy in the car, "Are we there yet?" in stereo (or surround sound if you think of that way). Good luck!

I kinda like the Daffy Duck[^] voice.
I thought "All the Annie" would be interesting but after listening to her for about 10 mins. I'm liable to throw my GPS out the window.

I've just muted the $)(#@*$ entirely a few years back; the red highlight showing which ramp/turn to take has everything I need without the annoying nattering. I think the last time I actually needed the voice feature was when I didn't discover that on glass mounts were illegal in CA until after arrival. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I mostly use my phone nowadays... but I had a weird experience not too long ago. My phone navigation app (google maps) actually changed voice while I was driving. That was a bit odd to say the least. The voice went from an American accent female voice to an English accent female voice then back again after a few minutes. I would have thought I heard the whole thing in my head if it wasn't for my girlfriend sitting in the passenger seat laughing about it.

Two minutes now.
Is this a vacation, or a Death Clock we are talking about?
And if it's the latter, can I have your monitor?

So...I can't have your monitor then?

The major part of packing the car for holiday was completed yesterday. All the boxes, bags and assorted gubbins the girls need to take with them for a month in a house that is fully stocked with clothes, shoes, make-up and assorted gubbins that girls need. #not quite full but well loaded and nicely done; even though I say so myself.
I just went out to fill her with petrol, check the tyres, oil and water, and make sure all locations are locked in on the satnav.
Where? Did? That? Come? From?
The back seat was piled high with more junk than a Steptoe & Son look-a-like contest. The dolls, toys and myriad detritus has been removed and the car keys will now stay firmly in my pocket until departure.

So you went from an emergency breakdown kit and 2 changes of clothes/person (one to overnight at a halfway point and a second in case of unexpected delay) to 99% of their wardrobe (excluding what they're wearing now, any dirty laundry, and what they're planning to wear between now and departure) and every toy you haven't broken by stepping on it while stumbling to the bathroom late at night.
