How does this work nowadays when you buy a PC from a store?
Does it come with Windows already installed?
And if so, with what account?

Yet another reason to not use windows 11.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Looks like I’ll finally be migrating my final workstation off of Windows 11.

I mean, I still have a while. The Dell T7910 still meets all of the Windows 11 Workstation 24H2 requirements, so Rufus only needs to modify that one part of the installer. And once I have Windows installed, I can do upgrades over Windows Update.

But once the machine gets too old for that…

At least OpenSUSE meets most of my needs.
