Chris, that is a good point. I must confess that I did not clarify my use case. I only needed to install Windows since the particular laptop I am using does not yet (fingers crossed) have support for firmware updates via LVFS. So, my only reason is to run a firmware update. You are correct though that for users expecting more out of their Windows installation, they'll need more space. Thanks!
