I glanced at the OpenSEA release and saw a quote from Kevin Porter, who's the global product manager for their NAC. -jj I’m pretty sure by HP they mean ProCurve, their networking division- they offer a NAC solution and Endpoing Integrity agent software.

I don't have anything to add beyond what is in the articles I referenced. I too share your disdain for bloating new PCs with software the user doesn't want (that's why I run a Mac). I'd very much doubt HP will be going this route. I’ve dropped a note to the HP OpenSEA rep in the hopes that he can clarify on this blog what he meant.

It is with hope that HP will not go the DELL way of putting crapware on the new computers without asking customers if they want that bundle or not? In DELL's case thy do not ask (not really a problem for corporate customers who usally format and put their own configuration in) , but for home users they usally just turn it on and use it one they get it.
