🎉 VICTORY! Lenovo is finally letting customers buy laptops WITHOUT Windows pre-installed in US & Canada!

Freedom to choose your OS is a fundamental digital right! This means:
💰 Lower costs
🌱 Less e-waste from unused Windows licenses
🚀 More freedom for you
💪 Linux Growth

If you're thinking of going Windows-free:
✅ Check out user-friendly distros like Ubuntu, Fedora, or Linux Mint
✅ Verify hardware compatibility
✅ Consider dual-booting as a transition
✅ Join communities for support

@techlore well GNU/Linux is one of the most OS around if not the most used one. But the big issue is at enterprise level.
It’s difficult to move sometimes from very windows “language” and services oriented to non windows stuff.
An even migrated to all Linux without any issue or very quick recovery from incidents sometimes people just migrate to windows … “because we are more familiar” etc.
It’s a war that I don’t play anymore. Guess it’s better living with issues and on the edge…😡
