As the title says, Iโm the IT guy at a non-profit and our org is donating our old laptops to folks around the area. About a dozen or so, some are pretty decent with 7th gen i5s and 8gbs RAM but some are as old as 4th gen and 4gbs. I got the green light to buy SSDs for all of them to help with performance as well.
Most of the recipients will not be tech savvy, so a distro as similar to Windows or shoot even Chrome OS will be best since I bet thats what the children in the fams are most familiar with from school.
So far eyeing Zorin OS Lite, especially for the older machines, maybe Mint for newer ones?
I know Chrome OS Flex is a thing but nah, too internet dependent which might not be accesible in their homes and also it requires they basically sell their soul to Google lol
Anything better than Zorin or Mint?
