Yup! Just installed it on my laptop after several tries running into bugs during install. My desktop is next, but I'm not ready for the headaches of figuring out a dual-boot yet. I'm mentally preparing for it, though, so fingers crossed.

So I might as well ask beforehand: Does anyone have a preferred tutorial for it? I prefer a recommendation to going in blind.

Hello. Not really a tutorial but a bit of advice: get a new internal SSD from Amazon and install it on that, leaving your Windows drive alone. It is a lot less of a headache if Linux is on a dedicated drive.
