it is actually quite easy, just follow these steps:

on your pc:

1. go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 and download the media creation tool

2. select "create installation media for another pc" and follow the intructions onscreen

3. have a usb stick at the ready with atleast 4gb of memory.

4.once the wizard has finished "working" with the usb

5. power off your computer, access your BIOS and set it so it boots from your usb

6.boot from usb and follow the intructions

7. do not power off the computer as it will potentially harm it!

8. sucess!

do you mean power to play video games? I don't know anyone deeply involved in computers that would rate Windows highly on any dimension. You could argue that it's necessary for some types of work, but in the broader categories of that work, it's still clear Windows is not worth it.

An example: Windows is good for .NET development, but development in general? Probably better to bite that bullet, give up .net, and develop in a *nix environment (unless you're *MOSTLY* working in .net)

Business run Windows because it facilitates things like remote IT administration. If you're not running an ActiveDirectory system or remotely administrating a bunch of other users with differing permissions and whatnot, *nix is clearly better.

Yeah, because it was the only OS with a decent office suite 30 years ago and businesses are run by crotchety old fucks.

It's still the only one. OpenOffice and LibreOffice are garbage and OS X is for manchildren, cultists, and faggots

I guess you could choose a nice background

windows has always looked like shit past win2k and now they`re dumbing down options and functionality like there`s no tomorrow so they can data mine you more efficiently

Office in OS X has pretty much come to parity with Windows, but it's still too new for IT people to be willing to take on what *could* be more work.
