Question by Sean M: Why do companies put their own software on computers they sell when it slows them down so much?
If you install just a clean version of Windows XP Home your computer will start up in like 10 seconds.
But every computer you buy these days (even IBM) is loaded down with crap that makes it take forever to start. My brother has a Sony VIAO and it is un-f’ing-believable. Like it can take upwards of 4-5 minutes to start up or shut down!
Not to mention that NO ONE one planet earth needs any of the garbage they put on. It’s all right there in the freaking Operating System.
So why do they do it? Isn’t bringing the computers you sell to a crawl a bad idea from a business perspective?
If I started my own company I would sell “fast” computers by just no tputting crap on them and pocketing the money I save on hardware. …don’t steal that idea. I’m going to trademark it.

Hardware manufacturers are dearly paid by software vendors to do so.
Part of this money would be passed to the consumer in form of lower price of the hardware.

The answer is price.If all the garbage wasn’t there and you had a clean copy of windows the computer would cost twice as much.Companies pay the computer manufacturers to install their demo products and this is what makes the price go down.You are right ,they are complete garbage and the first thing you do on a new computer is to remove all that

It needs of a lot of work. But in a great neighborhood. The current owner just didn’t take care of. Come to find out I actually know the current owner as we ran into one another when going to view the home. I found out through looking at public records that the house was in the Lis Pendens stage of forclosure in Febuary but as of the end of March I guess it was dimissed so he still owns the home. And he is getting divorced so the home is priced to sell fast. But its needs a new roof,gutters, carpet,pressure washing,paint plus the bathrooms and kitchen needs some updating. And thats just what we saw viewing the home. Who knows what an inspector would find. I found out how much he orginally paid for home which was 115,000, then saw he refi at 129,000 last year. The home is listed at 179,900. Whats a good starting offer point? Or am I am being to pressumptious thinking we can get a decent deal on the home? Any advice appriciated.
