Ya'll know I talk about Linux a lot. Some of you may not have a clue what I am talking about. Linux is a operating system that is free and replaces Windows, ChromeOS or MacOS. Linux runs great on older hardware. If you have a machine that is running slow or is no longer receiving security updates, you can replace the operating system with Linux. No need to buy a new machine.
There are a lot of variations of Linux, to point that it can get overwhelming which one to choose. Let me give you a starting point.
If you are new to Linux, I recommend trying these variations. These links will let you 'test drive' a Linux operating system to find which you like best. If you find one you like, I'll help you install it. If you install it and hate it, you can always try a different one.

*keep in mind, you are testing an operating system in a browser. It's going to seem a little slow or laggy, but it has been my experience with every Linux variation I have installed, that they all run smoother and faster than Windows. Linux is a lighter operating system and doesn't consume all of the resources like Microsoft Windows does.
