I'd only complain if there was an inability to do that.
Have you ever looked in the 'services' catagory? Yep, not alot can be disabled.

Uhh, lets see... this guy NEVER uses themes, instead of keeping the service running, lets ACTUALLY disable it.
Or how about, this guy has turned off our firewall everytime he starts his computer lets stop turning it on.
Or I have NEVER used windows search, turn that keymap and service off.
But more importantly, several processes are tied into other process' that are uneeded. For instance, I have my computer set up to NOT share anything, but just to access another computer and send stuff over. I do NOT need a service running designed to allow this computer to be accessed remotly. But it is connected to other network services making it hard to turn off.
And then there are the background services which NEVER turn off, probally doing nothing to help RUN xp, but are used by random 'perks' such as what I listed.
I want all that CRAP separated from the OS, technically it is, but I want it as it should be. Manual Installation. If I want you to put a 'security center' on my task bar, I will install it, STOP MAKING ME edit the registry to get your idiotic stuff to stop running. If I want a background service to run, I will tell it to run. Plain and simple.
And By the Way, DLLCACHE is not an easy thing to turn off (meaning not a option on the menus). A Gig wasted, as IF i am gonna edit one of my dlls. And the thing is, it is a dynamic service, constantly detecting the dll + exe + whatever after installations.
We all have our inner noob.
