A bigger issue for me, accepting that I will throw away Windows and install

suspect that attempting to make a warranty claim after switching the OS will
have its share of problems.

To be honest, the first thing I do is take out the windows HDD,
put in another (SSD or hybrid if I'm feeling flush) and keep the
windows one in a firesafe, ready to be popped back in if I need to
claim a warranty repair on the hardware. Not a very cost-effective
way of doing it, but if you've got a long warranty, it may be worth
it.
