Regular readers of this list may recall that I recently bought a mini-mini-computer: the slim instruction manual basically said that if you wanted to avoid trouble (which I take to mean "having to connect to a global M$ account"), I should boot WITHOUT a network connection. Which I did, and it seemed to create a local account without hesitation.
I recently saw a YouTube video that suggested one way to deal with having to create an account tied to M$ is to let it do that but do it using a "dummy" account. Once this account tied to M$ is created you then create a local user account that isn't tied to M$ and that account is the one you would use on a daily basis.
