HP OMEN 17-AN012DX 17.3in Gaming Laptop

hi people, I am new.

I am maybe thinking to buy this laptop but I am unsure if I will get any trouble while trying to change the OS from Windows into any type of Linux OS.

Any experience? Is this laptop blocked from fabric to do do this?

Thank you all in advance!

 

I can not find here the reply to my thread (in my email inbox yesterday) from Gray 1, but anyways,

Hey, dear Gray1:
Thank you so much for your explanation.
I am grateful.

I actually deleted it because i felt it was not a good answer. Acutally I use Ubuntu Mate. It is a good O.S. and keeps up to date with most of the latest drivers. The odds are good it would run fine on this system, but I don't know for sure. Since we are just talking I will add this. I am wondering why a person would like to change O.S. on this paticular laptop. Having claimed to be a gamer for years I do know that Steam wants Windows. You can play some games on Linux but more games available on Windows through Steam. A drawback to a gaming lapop is the weight. If your gonna carry this around much, your gonna wish it was lighter.

 

Hey Gray1,
thank you.
I will keep the Windows 10 OS
but I will wipe out the one of the old laptop.

Thank u again for your awesome reply and explanation in this and the other answer.
