I recently ordered one from Lenovo and you could select no os for -100 Euro.

Like why would I pay them 100 for a windows plus extra bloat, when I can get a windows for like 30 from somewhere else.

But also imma try a Linux

Don't use fake keys, they can stop working, use windows activator on GitHub. Basically it make windows think you upgraded from windows 7
