    I have seen videos on YouTube about these Win 10 Lite versions, but is this stuff legal? With that I mean, you don't need a license key? And I also wonder if this stuff is really way faster than normal Windows editions, has anyone ever tried it?

    The Disclaimer on their GitHub page is pretty clear about that:

    None of these images are pre-activated, you must use a genuine key.​

    OK so you should buy a key? I never really understood this stuff since I only use Windows that's delivered with the system. But I assume you can't just install this AtlasOS in a virtual machine without activation, it isn't cracked or anything.
