    HP has keyboard loggers in 460 models

    http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-42309371

    "Security researcher Michael Myng found the keylogging code in software drivers preinstalled on HP laptops to make the keyboard work.

    HP said more than 460 models of laptop were affected by the "potential security vulnerability"

    460? Is there an HP computer being offered that DOESN'T have a keyboard logger embedded in its keyboard driver software?

    Time to look for other brands.

    Is that some sort of QA software they forgot to delete?

      I believe so, but it makes a perfect infection vector.
