Its the machines that are locked AFAIK. If you bought a machine from system76 with ubuntu for example, you could install windows8 and recover grub. From what I have heard, it depends on how the vendors of the machines implement this feature. In some bios settings, the secure boot feature can be disabled. I say, just don't purchase a machine that doesn't allow you to do what you want to do.
