Thats why they’ll be a good deal.

The hardware is the same as several other brands, and none of them have come up bad. Ultimately it really does look like someone either got got on the image they cloned from or maliciously inserted windows spyware into it. Either way it’s nothing a flatten and reinstall won’t fix.

Hell, if the windows keys are legit you don’t even need to use the oem reinstall media.
