Hello. I bought a new computer recently, and the computer I’m replacing is still good, but it only works as a tablet now. I’m considering putting Linux on it, but would it be worth it or should I get rid of my old computer? Thanks!
Mint MATE is good for old computers, but I wonder you’d need to configure the tablet-like “touch” input manually and that could be some work.
