If not that, then a signature device from the Microsoft Store. They require OEMs to strip all of the crapware off before they can sell there.
I've now heard a few things on this.
I've heard that MS buys them, strips the laptops themselves and resells them at MSRP.
And I've heard that while it has less crapware, sometime it does still include the manufacture driver update crapware on them.

I'm not sure what the problem is? Less crapware > more crapware. If you image everything out of the box it doesn't matter what the source is I suppose.

That's my take on it. Always image; never care. AI;NC.

But they have access to the information the same as anyone else. It's no one's job to protect them except their own. No one is hiding the information from them.

Mine has definitely been in the bathroom.
That's best part of apps like Telegram. I can continue a conversation and no one even knows I am ... occupied.
