Dell’s expanding their no crapware option from their high-end XPS systems to their entire Dimension desktop and Inspiron notebook line; meaning you’re going to get the option at purchase time to opt-out of pre-installed trialware and shareware that slows down your computer considerably even when it’s brand new. The one caveat is that these computers aren’t entirely trialware free—it still has antivirus, Adobe Acrobat Reader and Google Tools left behind.
AU: You can now get the no crapware options from Dell Australia on the Vostro business line, and from recent discussions with local Dell reps this is set to expand, just not as quickly as on the US site. -SB
