I've got a fresh install of Windows 7 with probably a dozen or so of new applications I've installed myself and I only have 38. Computer makers are notorious for installing a bunch of crap that they get paid for but you will probably never use.

Here's a page that discusses Bloatware although I'm not sure I'd trust their Decrapifier tool to clean your laptop up. I'd prefer to do it one feature at a time.
