How does this work nowadays when you buy a PC from a store?
Does it come with Windows already installed?
And if so, with what account?

Meh... Yet another thing that everyone will just accept as a new norm. :c
Looks like I’ll finally be migrating my final workstation off of Windows 11.
I mean, I still have a while. The Dell T7910 still meets all of the Windows 11 Workstation 24H2 requirements, so Rufus only needs to modify that one part of the installer. And once I have Windows installed, I can do upgrades over Windows Update.
But once the machine gets too old for that…
At least OpenSUSE meets most of my needs.
Yet another reason to not use windows 11.
