Are you forced to run Windows on this laptop or could you throw a #Linux distro on it?

Oh this is at work - they all use Windows, I dont have a say in that. Multi-billion dollar company.

First thing I did with my new Laptop, was to switch Out the hard drive for a bigger one and then I proceeded to install Linux.

So, you prefer Linux and show us a booting Window screenshot. What happened?

Linux has customization and superior security. All of the security features on Windows like bitlocker are probably backdoored.
