Well. Go ahead then. 4GB is enough.
I'm done already! I installed debian, it's running well, and I'm going to use it to do my finical stuff ive decided. I've never felt comfortable using windows for that, so this alleviates the most significant portion of stress windows caused me.
I have the wireless shut off on it (actual physical button), and just plug it into the network when I do my banking and th n unplug it again.
I should have done this year's ago. I felt the weight drop off my shoulders.
The debian install was painless. The mint install I tried first wouldn't take for some reason.
👌 Debian is a really good choice from my perspective. I've been using it for the last decade or so. Glad the community could be of some help. And you found some good use for that old machine.
