I picked one up today and noticed the fan is quite loud upon booting up but then it subsides after about 15 seconds. Besides that I can't seem to detect any obnoxious fan noise during normal use.

2. Probably fairly easy with the media creation tool.
3. Libreoffice is my go-to but others may have better ideas and alternatives.

You can even select refresh (keep your files) if you don't want to backup your stuff.
It should take about 20-30 minutes. Then you can install Acronis True Image and keep a backup for a quicker refresh.
It matters when playing video games. But for web browsing and watching YouTube videos, probably not noticeable in video quality or performance.
But the point is that some people can find 10th gen i5 processor with G4 for $300 at Costco. So this laptop with G1 kinda kills the deal.

And no gamer is going to buy a laptop without a dedicated GPU.
