For a beginner Windows is a better choice. Yes I know Linux isn't that bad but Windows works fine too.

I agree those are a decent option, but it doesn't come with an OS (I prefer Windows over linux) and the processor isn't quite as good. Passmark scores aren't perfect, I know, but 7.5k on the Dell vs...
