"Decent pack of essentials"
Version: Google Pack beta beta
Pros
Dig the Spyware Doctor and the fact it gives a few basics new users need like skype and Google Earth
Cons
Real Player and Adobe, c'mon, really?
Summary
Totally download this, luckily it allows you to opt out of installing Realplayer and other "meh" items.

"Quality control, please"
Version: Google Pack beta beta
Pros
Cramming a bunch of essential programs into one pack is a decent enough idea, I suppose, since it will save some time hopping from website to website to acquire them.
Cons
Real Player and Adobe Acrobat. I do not understand why Google would pimp these awful, bloated, garbage programs when there are superior, lightweight versions available. Perhaps Google should make their own lightweight .pdf reader and media player.
Summary
Google's unofficial slogan may be "don't be evil", but that apparently does not prevent them from rendezvousing with evil companies. Perhaps if Google would implement some third-party quality standards or require these companies clean up their act first.
