Turn off junk services like “Fast Switching”, “Terminal Services”, and even go extreme with disabling “Themes”. All that features take about 20 Mb not "GIGABYTES". You are a liar. >Take an original XP that we all have, run the free utility nlite to remove the GIGABYTES of unwanted junk (languages, services…outlook express!).

It was very scary for her but it was funny.

That reason would be "Marketing". Or more accurately, "Marketing BS". They can now advertise the computer as having a built-in webcam. That doesn't mean it's usable though. “Figuring that the integrated webcam is built-in for some reason…”
