Sony makes decent high-end hardware... and then cripples it with loads of pre-installed crapware.

  I generally buy Mac laptops and build my desktop machines, but at the right price-to-hardware ratio I wouldn't mind buying a machine with Vista and pre-installed crapware, I would wipe it as soon as I got it.

    Assuming you wanted to be legal, you'd either need to spend a lot of time extracting the crapware, or have another Windows license kicking around. Most restore disks reinstall the crapware.

      Another plus for Dell. Unfortunately they don't tend to have the most elegant notebooks.
