Sony Computers Sans Crapware

Sony Charges $50 Extra to Sell You Laptop with No Crapware: How nice of Sony to sell you a computer that’s not pre-loaded with crap…for an extra $50.

“System optimization service” is what we’re calling a computer that comes without crapware. And by characterizing hard drive space as “valuable” and memory in need of conservation, Sony is effectively digging its own grave. I mean, do they not see that consumers notice this? If this new $50 feature “maximizes system performance,” then what does that imply of all the Sony laptops sold before it?

Its because company's pay Sony to install the crapware.

Yes, now we know the true value of crap. I wonder what $25 would get you...only half the crap?
