questions on how to do various things. My suggestion is to install
Linux on a different computer, or use a dual-boot setup - though many
will encounter issues with that - and access it from time to time,
1-2 hours per day, and after a few months, you will know if you can
really make the switch."


I did have one problem with dual boot (this was on a BIOS system, not
UEFI). In this case, it seemed to be Windows at fault. Some Windows
programs write over the disk boot track, where GRUB is installed.

I can't prove it, but strongly suspect some program's anti-usability
feature ("product activation").
