I have been aware of other options other than Windows and Mac since I was
around 8. However, I lived in my parent's home in a city which offered no
internet access other than on Windows and Mac---although apparently my
parents wouldn't have minded the idea of free software, since I was using
Win98 til 2009 at home.
Eventually I moved and I have two laptops, both Windows, one is bad and the
other is totally broken---in that I don't have the Windows password because I
had to reset everything and change the password and something went wrong.
Can I use DBAS on a computer with only Win7 to wipe the hard drive without
actually logging in to Windows, and how? Then, is Trisquel possible to
install on a blank hard drive?
Here are the specs, roughly:

To be clear, I don't need much and that is part of my motivation. My only
slight irritation will be that LibreOffice's docx support isn't perfect and I
am a college student in a Windows world, but I can work around that.
Also I need really, really fast internet, and in my current city that is
pretty much only Time Warner. I need to know what needs to be installed to
make that work.
