And you were complaining about CPU ids?

Free-PC.com is offering computers to people who are willing to share their age, income, hobbies and other personal details that advertisers covet. In exchange for the free computer, recipients must agree to let the company monitor how they use it--including what they buy and where they go on the World Wide Web.

"They're offering a Faustian bargain here," said Evan Hendricks, a privacy advocate and editor of the newsletter Privacy Times. "Everyone has to decide for themselves what's more important: a free computer, or what people learn about their lives from that computer."
