I have got a question for all the #tech people out there with experience regarding #hp and #Linux

#Windows11 is being rolled out and I probably will have to set up my Laptop again. Never used #Linux on a PC, so how about:

Do #Linux distributions support HP omen 17 (2019) ?

If so, which one would you recommend for chiefly MS Office use (64-bit Excel a must) ?

How difficult is a set-up for a non-IT pro who has always worked with Windows (but installed systems)?

      PS:
      Funny that it DOES seem possible to install Ubuntu on an OMEN-17 after all.

      I quickly read through the steps and recognized them.

      Of course, I did not press install but went for the direct boot from stick.

      In any event, my feeling now is that what the machine says is correct: there is a problem with MY BIOS.

      As I took pics, I will send them to HP as well.
