What is the best simple to set up Linux OS and Desktop environment

Lubuntu (LXLE?) or Absolute Linux

Lubuntu looks ugly imo...anything better but still retain the performance?

Antergos will give you an easy to install Arch. Honestly, The desktop environment is what you're worried about for resources. Look up light DEs like lxde or xfce or some shit and get any flavor of Linux with a light DE.

Any distribution will be about the same performance wise, The only thing that will decrease ram and CPU usage in any noticeable level will be your choice of desktop environment or window manager

I suggest an ubuntu/debian based distro with XFCE

Is this good? I've had no experience with Antergos

Get fedora running LXDE

Personally, I have an elderly Dell Dimension 3000 with a Pentium 4 and 2GB of RAM, and I just run KDEbian on it. Works just fine.

You could use i3 or openbox

Arch Anywhere is better

Elementary OS works fine on older hardware. You could always invest a tiny bit of money on an ssd.

The Latitude D630 is a fucking awesome laptop, OP, you just have no god damned respect for how awesome it really is and don't deserve such an awesome piece of hardware.

whatever the hell you want, it's not that destitute
I ran a mobile precision variant of that shitbox for a while until it got fucked by water damage and it was plenty fine with Fedora and even a mainstream DE, though I swapped it for fvwm out of preference

Easy to upgrade, made of magnesium, clit mouse, absolute dream to maintain.
Kill yourself.
