With the upcoming UEFI and Secure Boot WIndows 8 etc....
From what I've read online desktop/laptop can be locked to run only Windows 8 or other OS with secure boot.
What options does an openSUSE user, have to install opensuse on newer pc that's shipped with Windows 8 ? Supposedly all new win 8 hardware shipped with secure boot on some hardware manufacturer might give option to turn off ?
Then the argument is why buy a PC to change the OS ? Well cause I run linux not windows.
There are very few hardware vendors that sell Linux pre-installed on hardware.
Thanks,
