And 11 year old is perfect age to introduce to opensource computing Honestly it is very easy to try out various Linux's and I would skip Windows all together. O, army of Opensourcers and Penguin Worshippers, please help me give my kid a good Christmas present.Ĭlick to expand.Ubuntu LTS, Debian or RedHat/CentOS are the only real choices you should consider then I don't have much time to figure this out, so I call on you. Until then, what version of windows should I install on it? Yes, I will add more RAM when I can afford it and my husband can install it. "System" was constantly using most of it. I looked at task manager and couldn't find any programs running or processes hiding that appeared to be using a lot of RAM. Using Windows 10 (which I am not even sure it was supposed to be upgraded to) I was receiving low memory problems while browsing the web. I am doing a factory reset at the moment and want to know the best operating system to install.
If it makes a difference, I am planning on turning my win 10 laptop to linux as soon as I read enough to do it on my own. So I posted it here because open source ppl are awesome at helping most ppl. I didn't know where to post this exactly, since the categories are based on a specific version of windows and I am trying to determine which version to use. I know Windows in and out, but I don't know hardware as well.
I need it to be compatable with Windows software. I want to make it fast and able to handle as much as possible. I need to make this computer as stable as possible since he lives in two different households and when he isn't home I am too far away to help him with errors and issues. He broke his old chromebook a couple months ago and I don't want him stuck with a mac that always needs to be plugged in and I can hear the hard drive ready to just give up and die. He is only 11 and has just recently started being interested in computers (thanks to minecraft). I bought my son a refurbished Dell Latitude E6500 for Christmas.
