I have a task of getting this laptop a new OS
Any good one out there?
Preferably for office use, owner is a student.
Thinking about getting a linux distro
Owner is used to windows, would help a lot if OS is kinda similar to windows
Also need chrome app (good thing there is chrome on linux)
Install Gentoo

TrueOS will do you good.
It will run W10 ok, but I would upgrade it to 4gb of ram and get a cheap SSD.

Hackintosh

Owner not seeking for upgrades right now

Aint it inefficient to do this
Le owner need docs/excel/ppoint and chrome. I dont know if chrome apps are enough. It mostly be used offline

And ofcourse, faster OS = better
Possibly RemixOS an android based operating system but it isnt always compatible. elementary os or puppylinux for a really lightweight os. CubLinux is worth checking out to its essentially chromium but its not getting anymore updates.

Worked on one of those yesterday.
Install XP or some Linux distro for old computers.

Buying a RAM upgrade for that dinosaur would cost a lot.
