Hi all, the private school I work at has a tonne of old windows 7/8 era desktops in a student library. The place really needs upgrades but they never seem to prioritise replacing these machines. Ive installed Linux on some older laptops of mine and was wondering if you all think it would be worth throwing a light Linux distro on the machines and making them somewhat usable for a web browsing experience for students? They’re useless as is, running ancient windows OS’s. We’re talking pre-7th gen i5’s and in some cases pentium machines here.
Might be pointless but wonder what you guys think?
@lord_ryvan @Zachariah probe xf ce, is infinity better, lighted, stable.
I know it’s lighter, but my point is that Cinnamon is more than light enough for a computer with an 7th gen i5 and 4 GB of RAM. They even require only 2 GB and recommend just 4 GB of RAM, anyway. So I wonder if there is another reason, since Cinnamon is already light enough.
