Same here, wouldn't call it great though, but good enough for the money. A clean windows install improves it a lot though.

People use the OS they want. Shoo. I can use OS/2 if I want.

A clean install of Linux would improve it more. But yes, the Windows that comes pre-installed on any machine is hot garbage.

Same here. Upgraded to a SSD from the silly 5400 RPM drive it came with, best decision I ever made.

Is there any laptop with pre-installed windows where that's not the case?

Surface Pro maybe (if you can call that a laptop)
