Lenovo only got fined 3.5M? Cheap, not counting the reputation hit anyway.
If anyone knows how to slow down systems with their software, it's definitely HP. Haven't used one in awhile, but you could get a boost similar to going from a mechanical hard drive to an SSD by reloading the OS without all their bloatware. I wonder, has any security researchers ever thought about going back to circa-2005 printer software to see what it was up to?
