Q: Is the version of Windows 10 trail or permanent?

Q: can cd's be put in this laptop?

A: Yes, this product can be used with a mouse that uses a USB dongle. It is compatible with wired and wireless printers.

Q: Do not want Windows 10.

A: You can download for free any of the Linux distro Operating system's, UBUNTU is the most popular for beginner's you can either erase windows and install it over it or you can install both and when you turn on your computer you choose which operating system you wish to run UBUNTU is like a free version of APPLE OS X on a macbook or iMac people really need to stop saying Window's is the ONLY operating system available for a PC there are DOZEN'S you just need to know where to look and know who to ask stop giving people false info please sheesh google UBUNTU i dont know if i can post links here if you want to research it more have fun
