I may spend money on a more lightweight paid antivirus and firewall to install on a cheaper Windows PC.
Most cheap laptops have slower CPUs and less RAM like 2 to 4GB of RAM. Some free antivirus and firewall I used come bundle with bloatware, ads, notifications to buy the paid version of its antivirus, and advertise other software. I think these ads and notifications in free antivirus can make using a cheap PC slower and more annoying.
I also did not spend a lot of money on a cheap computer, so spending an extra $30 to $40 won't make me go over my computer buying budget which is usually below $600.
