[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends upon your use case. If you need Linux to connect to and/or control physical hardware, it is pretty useless. It also won't help if you need a more stable OS than Windows, [b]an OS that runs well on older hardware[/b], or are trying to save on licensing costs for the OS. A more common (and resonable) use case would be for someone who needs to run Linux software and already has a Windows license. If you are in that category and are happy with the available distributions, it can be a good, lightweight alternative to running Linux in a VM or on bare metal. [/quote] Isn't this the main reason people install distros like linux mint, to revive old pc's? And anecdotally, LM is much more stable for me on my Dell than Windows 10.[/quote]
