Honestly, I wish there was a way to comment on their stupid statement. These bullsh*t companies need to realize that users don't want the stupid bloatware in the first place. I paid you a TON of money for this computer the least you can do is give it to me in its best condition.
You wouldn't buy a car that came painted with advertisements on the side!
- jakejake 12y agoThey are perfectly aware of how people feel about bloatware. Dell at one point offered clean installs but you had to pay something like $30 extra. This probably provides some type of clue that they make about that much more per machine by including all the pre-installed crap.
- takluyver 12y ago> Dell at one point offered clean installs but you had to pay something like $30 extra And I'd hazard a guess (with no evidence) that very few people paid that extra cost. We undervalue our own attention, assuming that we can easily ignore adverts, so ad-supported products are disproportionately successful (preinstalled bloatware is just a special kind of advertising). Does anyone know how well Amazon Kindles with 'Special offers' are selling?
