Yeah, the only downside is that for some reason when you have both of them installed the boot time can take a lot longer but if you only have 1 of them installed let it be OA or EAM it boots pretty fast.
Wonder what could be causing that.

I think two strong brothers compete to outperform each other in the Olympics.

Hey Noob, I remember you said your EAM and OA licenses expired and you were waiting to renew. So did you renew the licenses? Did you enjoy renewal discounts?

Avast Free, but always do a custom install since I don't need all of its protection. Doesn't slow me down.

There shouldn't be an option for none as the question was quite explicit.

Poll seems redundant to me, and the selections are limited.
Don't know why it's still open.
So I voted Other.
