Amazon has opened pre-orders for the Dell Ultrasharp 32 HDR Premier Color Monitor (UP3221Q).
This is absolutely shocking, someone not aware could be trapped easily.

I'm on the Dell site right now - There are also options for BIOS settings (wake-on-lan set to enabled, fastboot set to auto, TPM security set to on/enabled, boot first device...these are all individual options with an £8.40 price tag...and you can bundle them for £9.10!). Oh and there's an extra charge if you want HDD partitioning!
Absolutely shocking! Could end up overtaking EA as Consumer Choice Worst Company of the Year and that's a tall order.
disgusting predator greed tactics..
Good for amateurs out there to to make a buck, install free antivirus stuff, and any other useful software for people who otherwise don't know how, or don't want to do it themselves.
Still, 30 or so bucks is crazy...
