shaka3736 NO!, I would NOT get a computer that is running Windows 11 S Mode
Windows 11 in S mode isa version of Windows 11 that's streamlined for security and performance, while providing a familiar Windows experience. To increase security, it allows only apps from Microsoft Store, and requires Microsoft Edge for safe browsing.

If I'm not mistaken, I heard you can disable S Mode. At least according to customer support. Apparently a lot of people disable it.
If so, it's an 11th gen i3 with 8 GB RAM, is that good?
I literally just purchased it an hour ago so I would really appreciate a reply as soon as convenient for you so I can cancel my order if need be. But I heard S Mode can be disabled so hopefully it'll be okay!
