This laptop has no way to disable wifi. I at least did not find anything - no such function key. And the Windows setup required you to connect to a wiki, with no way to proceed otherwise. Like, wtf?

Don't give it the PSK for the wifi and then it doesn't have internet

You can't continue the setup process without connecting to a wifi network. There is no alternative in the UI.

Maybe. It's been a little while since I last installed windows but I've been told that before and I've known for a fact it was possible to setup with only a local account, they just didn't know how to do it.

You open the command prompt during initial setup, change the oobe. It reboots, then no Microsoft account.
