Toshiba laptops are with Norton now

Toshiba has signed a contract with Symantec to provide Toshiba laptops with Norton 360 and Norton Internet Security 2009. The users can use these programs for 60 days for free and after this period, they should pay for them. Symantec will provide its antivirus program with three languages (English,French and Spanish). This contract is only an advertisement for Symantec products and I think they chose Toshiba for this deal as its laptops are expensive and its customers can easily pay for the Symantec antivirus programs. But in my opinion it's a bad thing from Toshiba to agree to this deal because it may cause problems for customers who don't want to use Norton as their internet security suite as it slows their computers and uninstalling it is very difficult.
