Is Dell selling computers with keyboard loggers installed?
Fake.
Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. Bastard coated bastards with bastard filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive, bubble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine. -- Dr. Perry Cox
just the fact that they call the PIC16F876 a programmable interrupt Controller makes it fake.. it is a microcontroller and no engineering person I know would have ever called it anything else

my question is... why would the keylogger be spliced directly to the "integrated ethernet board"?

so it can pass on the keystrokes through the internet I suppose.. If dell really wanted to do this, chances are it would be build onto the motherboard so nobody would ever figure it out

From Wikipedia
Microchip Technology does not use PIC as an acronym; in fact the brand name is PICmicro. It is generally regarded that PIC stands for Peripheral Interface Controller, although General Instruments' original acronym for the PIC1650 was "Programmable Intelligent Computer".
