Technically it's easy. You just leave your Windows install where it is (assuming you have enough disk space) and it'll be waiting there ready to embrace you again when you decide to give up on freedom and come crawling back. Psychologically it could be a challenge.

"Most" of the people are aliens!? It's a distant galaxy. They're all aliens. Many of whom would be classified as "white" by the systems of racist classification prevailing in typical Earth audiences. Also they speak English.

Who? The headline writer? I'm sure they'd probably love it if they could get a quote from Mark Shuttleworth saying "Lo, they have violated the sacred covenant of semantic versioning. Heresy!
