So got an older computer from Mother in law shes 84 and going into an assisted living center
It has only 4 Gb of Ram a 500 gig HD and a sucky AMD processor equal to a Celeron in speed
windows 10 was loaded on it and it was so slow many programs would not work or would seize
Figured it was a great way to test The newest Linux Mint 18.3 cinnamon release..
It is totally free as are all the programs. free office programs , email programs, graphics programs ect
loads quickly. loaded all the drivers for printer, monitor, network, ect, ect automatically
even connecting to email server took 3 clicks and it found all the setting itself
so far have not found anything I cant do that we were doing on Win 10
The Desktop/menus as configured looks like Window XP/7 but its easy to make it look like Win 10 desktop if you want
Must say I am impressed..
