Hm, my read of the quoted statement is the same as my read of your comment. If you get a new Windows laptop and don't have an Internet connection, you can't start using it. Is that correct?
- electroly 5y agoYeah, that's right. Maybe I misunderstood his intent but I took "You can't set up a local user account or use your PC at all" at face value. You can set up a local user account and you can use the computer without an Internet connection; you just can't do that during the initial OOB process.
- wutbrodo 5y agoYea, that would be beyond egregious. Imagine a laptop you couldn't use on a plane? I don't know if Microsoft has any product people working on Windows, but surely somebody at the company would notice the constant, universal condemnation that would engender.
