Best Buy Bloatware Removal: Another Scam or Actually Useful?

Best Buy is known for it’s questionable practices sometimes. From useless warranty programs, to basically forcing extras down your throat. So naturally, when they offered to give me a bloatware free machine, when I bought my Dell Inspiron 1525, I was a little apprehensive. But it was only $30, and I can’t stand the bloatware that comes loaded onto brand new computers. Not only do they remove the bloatware, but they do the whole setup process, which usually takes a couple of hours, and my time is valuable. My only complaint, is that they couldn’t remove Norton Internet Security, which still comes up everytime I turn the PC on, but I’m sure I can take care of that myself. All in all, not a bad deal, and I can finally say something positive about a Best Buy extra.
