Glad I found one and used it. If I didn't need Windows for my classes, I'd be on Linux already.
I found it because the wifi was stuck off and if I couldn't turn it on unless I set up windows... Which dumbly requires internet.
So once that comes to pass, someone in my situation would be SOL.
What classes require windows? You can run most things in Linux. And for the cases where my classes had instructions on how to set up something on Windows, for Linux and MacOS they just had a foot note saying "You are on your own". But nothing was mandatory.
