Who's the worst purveyor of bloatware?
Computer information site PC Pitstop recently purchased eight laptop computers to test them for bloatware (trial programs that come pre-loaded on new computers).
Bloatware takes up space on your hard drive, annoys you with come-ons to buy the full programs, and can slow down your machine.
Sony, HP and Dell and Gateway were the worst offenders. The computer maker with the least bloatware: Apple. On the software side, the worst offender is Wild Tangent.
