    quite annoyed that the Snapdragon laptops are bootlocked cos they’d make great Linux boxes

      How are they bootlocked? Just need the right iso. I have done it, because I didn’t know they came with Linux for this particular client and they put windows on it, had to get a specific iso to reinstall when they borked it.

        oh really? I thought MS had demanded boot locking for the ARM laptops.

          I’m not 100% sure, I just know I did it once. Let me see if I can get the iso I used for Linux.
