Also, you may want to avoid buying Compaq PCs,
the come with a type of adware PREINSTALLED!!!
It isn't detected by Adaware, there is no (easy) way
to disable it(except maybe buying the software),
it was installed to an unusual directory, and
you can't get rid of it by re-installing(since
it is on the restore CDs)!
