I have a 2012 Intel Macbook Pro (the version without a dGPU), right now it only has Pop_OS on it, the SSD on the device is only 128GB so I removed the preinstalled macOS, I want to know if I can replace Pop with Windows 10 since the gaming performance is tanked on the old iGPU, looking online I only find articles about dualboot with macOS which I don’t want because of the low space, the only worrying thing is Windows doing some voodoo shit ruining essential partitions of the device while installing and maybe incompatibility with Windows boot manager

    Unrelated, this is a good thing to hear, I have an old MacBook air 2012 lying around, a supported OS would be handy to make use of the hardware still being in excellent condition.

      I love to make most of whatever hardware I get my hands on, I have a 2009 ASUS Eee that’s running MX Linux, it’s not the best experience of a laptop but it runs stuff so I can make use of it
