Dell Inspiron Gaming Desktop 5680: Software And User Experience
We booted to a clean desktop. Behind the scenes is a 12-month subscription to McAfee LiveSafe, which is sort of an all-encompassing security package (more than just antivirus software), so it's not totally devoid of third-party software.
