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 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 ...
