I bought my last laptop, and stuck in a DVD with s different OS before even powering it on. I run something other than what came on the laptop.

You can always change the OS.

You can always should be able to change the OS. Then trouble we have found with Windows 8 is that it is like a plague with viruses all though the computer.. While installing a new OS may be possible, UN installing W-8 is all but impossible and multiple problems have occurred for us in trying to navigate around it. We are users, not programmers or mechanics, that makes matters worse and frustrating for us.
