Now me only inconnvienance would be that damn SP1. Get that solved and I might finally fall off the fence.
I have tried to disable those services not needed according to Blackviper. My recommendation, leave your services alone. I have not noticed any speed increase from removing "unneeded" services plus the likelihood of disabling something you do actually need is very high. Then you would have to search for what service you disabled because some process is no longer working.
