Thanks Jerry and team for your great work on LL. I've got a 13-yr old Dell Latitude D610; spent £20 on RAM upgrade and now have a fast and very stable machine. I'm a volunteer for AbilityNet ITCanWork in the UK so recommending Linux Lite for clients with older machines and no need for proprietary software or drivers. All best, David

Welcome to the forum, hackneydave.

I agree 100%. This OS is very stable and crazy fast!
Very good and well polished distro especially for older hardware. And yes, no proprietary drivers needed.
For example the open source 'nouveau' module for Nvidia cards works very well.
I recommend LL to my friends and colleagues too

Welcome hackneydave.Yes, really smooth on the Dell 600 series.
LL3.8 has been really zippy on my slightly younger Dell D630 and suspect that LL4 will be the same too, if/when I get round to installing it  ...

Cheers from Hastings - just "down the road" from you ...

64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work
