    When 64-bit was less mainstream and tweaks were all accomplished by reg hacks and other weirdness, TuneUp was there providing a decent (albeit convoluted) interface to accomplish what was easy and taken for granted in the 32-bit world.

    This is the 21st century. It is no longer required that someone actually know anything about the inner workings of an OS to effectively tune a computer (linux throwbacks to the contrary). That's why we no longer have carbs tuned by a screwdriver in cars. The dinosaurs who cling steadfastly to "the old ways" are only showing how pointlessly resistant to change they are - and how useless they have become in the modern era of computing.

    I've been a techie for 20 YEARS (yeah people, I stared with DOS 3) and I'd recommend this product to an average user who needs to he handheld.

    FIVE stars

    I don't see how this is worthless junk. TuneUp Utilities isn't for everyone. It's designed to keep the average computer running smoothly.
    As far as I'm concerned, its Defrag utility is the best on the market.
    TuneUp keeps my PC 110% clean. Now with version 2010, I'm more than satisfied.

    This software, and others like it, is for people who know nothing about computers and don't want to know anything except check their e-mail and play solitaire. Should be worthless crap to anyone who reads BetaNews. Minus 10 stars if it was there.
