Or any other competent non-surveillance search engine such as duckduckgo 
or ixquick, but a diversion...

Anyway, web search so far has revealed an overwhelming desire (99.999% 
?) to have some sort of dual boot, which is not the result required 
here, but instead: exclusive boot of gnu/linux, with occasional use of 
the original oem m$ within a virtual machine (e.g. virtualbox, xen, 
etc.), whilst using linux.
