Hello! My old laptops hard drive packed it in, so I got a new one and now need to flash drive an operating system on it. I think this is my time to give Linux a proper go. I tried it before for my gaming PC but switched for a cracked Windows key because I was young and not bothered to learn.

Well, now is my chance to give it another go. I’m looking for a Linux optimised for performance on an HP 255 G7. Threadbare, but not so bare that it’ll require me to do a load of complicated stuff to do the basics. I’ll just be using it for YouTube and Google docs really. Any help/advice/orders are appreciated.

Thanks!

    Lubuntu is really snappy, you should give it a try

      Lubuntu is great, but I wouldn’t be using it except on a really old laptop as it doesn’t look so nice and some stuff are difficult to do compared to Fedora workstation.
