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)?

…e up on UBUNTU and use the flash drive to generate a windows bootstick. Too bad.
But thanks again.

Unfortunate to see hurdles thrown in the way to install a Linux based OS by manufacturers, though not quite surprising.
If the desire to try remains in you, please reach out to the local Linux users group #lug and ask if one of the members could spare a couple of hours with you. Many old timers would be glad to help. Might even bring back their memories of install fests.
https://www.infofuge.com/hp-omen-17-ubuntu/ there is hope to succeed in installing #ubuntu. Since as you said earlier that this is your first time outside of Windows there may be some loss in translation.
