I have an ASUS ROG that came with Windows 12 pre-installed. I tried using it once and it pissed me off so bad I haven't opened the laptop again. I want to switch to a Linux distro that's compatible with it but need the process explained like you would to Grandma trying to bank online. Are there any resources that break it WAY down? Like, starting just after turning the computer on (I've got that down already).

I'm not trying to dissuade you from installing Linux, but I am curious to know what pissed you off about Windows so immediately that you don't want to touch it again. Mandatory Microsoft account?
