   That bit me when I was setting up the Lenovo. Despite moving USB to the   
   top of the boot order it kept coming up with Windows before I turned off   
   secure boot in the BIOS. Nothing else I've dealt with had that feature.   
      
   I also discovered the Lenovo has a Thunderbolt port. I'm not sure what I   
   can do with that. I always associated that with Apple although after they   
   dropped the royalty other manufacturers started adding them. However Intel   
   was also involved and made it hard for AMD so that also limited the use.
