Finally, Microsoft

How about having store apps, cortana, telemetry, forced updates, feature updates disabled or better yet removed/optional, like I choose during instalation what I want and what I dont want. Not possible? Thought so, nowhere even close to linux

>Since I don't really do anything that illegal or that I'm ashamed of
Me too but privacy is a basic human rights, just because you have nothing to hide doesn't mean you don't deserve privacy.
>Windows is good enough for my use
Sure but if you don't actually need anything exclusive to Windows there's no harm in learning something new, being well versed in Linux is a marketable skill you know.

Of course, And I'd be eager to learn. I'm hoping i can mount Ubuntu or Free BSD (If it's any good) onto my system while still having access to windows.

Sure there's an online guide on that.

You can try new OSes without making any changes to your current system if said OS provides live images, all you have to do is write the image to a USB drive and boot from it, look up "live usb"

>Microsoft is 10-20 years behind and it's too late
Now that Linux has taken over the PC market and Microsoft no longer retains a huge marketshare.

Wait a minute....

Windows 10 was a mistake
