How can you still buy a lenovo product? Superfish was a VERY a dangerous software to have preloaded. I'm pretty sure lenovo engineers knew exactly how dangerous this is and did absolutely nothing about it. And if no one in lenovo knew then that is much worse.
In essence, the company installed software to spy on you, and I hear people defending their decision and say they will still buy their products. It does not matter if you use linux or not. This is not an honest mistake and I will never buy a lenovo product in my life. I will not sit here and defend them or try to associate with them and defend their incompetence/ignorance/maliciousness.
To me, the software that comes installed on a laptop is as relevant as the "special offer on peripherals and laptop bags" pamphlets in the box; immediately discarded without a look.
It's the hardware that counts and to date Dell and Lenovo have been pretty consistent in offering solid corporate hardware.
So personally I would buy Lenovo hardware particularly if payments made to them for including the irrelevant crap actually knocks a few dollars off the retail price!
