Get the laptop without an OS

Install a trial copy of windows

Go to massgrave.dev.

That's really cool, but the Spyware and AI bloat is still an issue

Yeah, absolutely. Pretty much all of my devices are on some variant of Debian, but that's not always feasable for some folks, so with that method, at least you're not paying Microsoft through the nose for the privilege of harvesting your data.
