My personal concern is that it might not support dual booting with non-MS OS's. I'm pretty sure there'll be a workaround for us linux users that still have to put up with legacy MS bloatware just to run one or two specific non linux supported app's.
As always, remain vigilant regarding your online security by not visiting sketchy sites (especially following links in spam, don't do it!), and harden your firewall and AV defences especially if you are visiting darknet sites, or certain IRC channels. hint: Proxy chaining FTW.
If linux is so good you wont need to use pesky Microsoft products will you
