I don't think that's monstrous at all. To put things in perspective, that
100MB that you call "all this bloat" is about ten US cents worth of disk
space or less. 100MB used to be a lot of disk space. Today it's next to
nothing.


Are there any good, free, generic replacements for the Adobe Reader?


Although I've never used it myself, many people like Foxit reader.
