content: It's not even that hard. I was able to do it with my Windows 8.1 laptop in 15 minutes. Granted, I had to actually boot into Windows to get to the BIOS to disable secure boot (which, what the fuck MS? That's an awful design choice!), but there was no issue getting it to install alongside Windows. Actually, I had an issue getting it to recognize Windows 7 on my non-secure boot desktop, and that ended up being the harder install process despite the motherboard relying on the older tech... But regardless, anyone saying Linux is too hard to install needs a sanity check, because it's really not hard at all, it just takes a little more manual configuring.
