From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

And then Windows overwrites your bootloader so it can only boot into Windows.
I need to overwrite windows because currently I'm just considering my laptop unusable until I bother to fix grub after that...
Do it! Commence the sacrifice so that the great penguin in the sky may grant you its blessing!
Oh my god, this truly was one of the biggest reasons I didn't use Linux in college. After I built a rig with two SSDs, it felt so much easier to get into Linux.
There is one better way, telling your linux bootloader where the windows install is so you don’t have to go to bios when you want to boot windows
