Feel out of the loop. Have you heard of this Windows 10 in S mode? Definitely not for me. But these laptops start at very low prices... But you can switch out so that is good.

microsoft.com

1 Windows 10 in S mode works exclusively with apps from the Microsoft Store within Windows and accessories that are compatible with Windows 10 in S mode. A one-way switch out of S mode is available. Learn more at windows.com/SmodeFAQ.

2 According to NSS Labs reports at aka.ms.

3 Windows Hello requires specialized hardware, including fingerprint reader, illuminated IR sensor or other biometric sensors and capable devices.

4 If you switch out of S mode, you can't switch back into S mode.

Some people have more than one, I have an XP ThinkPad laptop, an XP box that I don't use anymore due to a fan that failed, and 1 notebook that run Windows 7 and my Dell desktop that is Windows 7 as well. I have 2 Windows 10 notebooks, only use one of them for video editing. The other one is useless as it was upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and does not work the best too many bugs from Windows 10 upgrade.
