Hello r/homelab,
I just picked up some Dell Optiplex 7040 SFF (8 of them) and they all came with a clean install of Windows 10 Pro. My plan was to run PiHole, nginx for reverse proxy, and some game servers. I wanted to get more familiar with Linux running on these machines but it feels like a waste to throw away Windows 10 Pro subscriptions. What would you do? Keep a subset running Windows and others Linux or would that be more of a hassle than it would be worth?
Ah okay. I was able to grab the product key so I can always go back. Didn’t realize it’d be that simple! Thanks for the advice!
