I think the majority want bloatware and if you look at the typical Linux distro that is exactly what you get. Although you can make Linux run from a floppy, it generally doesn't do much. Not only do they add lots of functionality to the Linux kernel to make a distro which is arguably decent, but then they go further and instead of making a nice lean (as possible) full-featured OS, they go stick bundles of applications INTO THE OS DISTRO itself. Often WITHOUT the option of NOT installing them. This is a real putoff!
