    Lenovo will never get my money after they were caught installing rootkits on their computers. Fuck 'em, I don’t care how cheap they get.

      If you’re looking for ethical hardware manufacturers, there are none. Just do a clean install when you get it, like every other computer.

      I would assume licensing SteamOS legally prevents them from doing something like that, but who knows.

        IIRC Lenovo’s rootkit fuckery was in UEFI and auto-launched even after a fresh Windows install. It was complete bullshit.
