2 hours? What did you have to do that took 2 hours? The uninstaller is written to be cautious about what it deletes (better to delete not enough than too much).

2: What the hell is "realsched"? Why do I have to pull up task manager to close it? Why does it run itself on startup no matter how many times I disable it in both msconfig and Real Player itself?

realsched.exe is the background process that watches for device arrival messages, does upgrade checks, watches for stolen media types,... All of these things can be configured in the preferences. If all categories are disabled, realsched.exe will automatically shutdown and not restart unless needed*.
*there was a bug in the original RP10 beta (early January) that prevented realsched from shutting off when it wasn't needed. The bug has been fixed and would only affect you if downloaded the player in the first week or two that RP10 beta was available.
