'Do not discard that old PC or laptop yet. You can use a lightweight Linux distro to make them as good as new. Some of these Linux distros are specifically for use in older machines. You can use any of the lightweight Linux distros and bring your old machine back to life. In as much we focus on the old distros, we do have some new releases that do not require many resources that can re-invent your old computers. Are you in any or all of the situations below? - Your computer is but still feel like you can revive it - Your computer is modern but runs on low power - You need to install a modern computer to reserve resources to other demanding tasks If you find yourself in any of the above situations, then the best choice of action would be to start looking for the best lightweight Linux distros for old computers.' -- source: https://linoxide.com/distros/lightweight-linux-distros-for-old-laptop/ Cheers, Peter -- Peter Reutemann Dept. of Computer Science University of Waikato, NZ +64 (7) 577-5304 http://www.cms.waikato.ac.nz/~fracpete/ http://www.data-mining.co.nz/
