Just had the same idea, did it and it works.
I didn't know you could uninstall it, thought it's one of those things android forces on you.
Thanks!

Thinking now more in terms of an actual laptop. Any suggestions on make etc? Touch screen would be nice - or would it? Anyone have experience with one? Something preferably relatively light, with a good easy-to-see screen, decent battery life, a few USB slots and maybe a CD drive is the kind of thing I'm looking for. And obviously a sturdy and responsive keyboard. Probably 4GB RAM and maybe 500 gig to 1 tb HDD.

GOOD ADVICE: Go bigger on RAM! Windows 10 OS eats up 2 GB of RAM itself just to operate. And only like 3.45 of that 4 GB is actually usable [like storage space on a hard drive, they always fuck you.]. So 4 GB of RAM while running Windows 10 is really like having 1.5 GB This is life.

Yeah I'm going for an 8 gb model, definitely. And 1tb hdd space. To hell with SSD and their ****ing tiny storage: I need a proper hard disk.

Yeah? I'm really thinking about pulling the trigger, though I might wait for Amazon Prime day. Only a week away now...

Any newer dell latop will pretty much do whatever you need it to do. Especially if you're just a simple computer user. So yeah, I'd say go for it if you can get it on sale too.

SSD for boot drive / main programs is an incredible performance increase over HDD btw. Might want to consider having both.
