Answer 1

hp and compac are loaded with adware and spyware from the factory, windows restore is in a hd partion, so a restore brings all the bloatware back, these comps from the factory are running at least 20 more processes than a comp should have, the games are popup generaters!

Answer 2

neither, get a dell Vista
