abarbarian Posted February 10 Posted February 10 Hi my sister does a lot of e-mail reading and surfing on her phone but her eyesight is pretty poor. So I was wondering if the above would ok for such use. Thing that concerns me is that is running Windows 11. Which I an told is a bit of a bloated hog. Can I put a linux distro on it for a better experience and if so which ? I obviously would prefer MX as I am very familiar with that distro. She would not need a lot of storage so for her use 64 GB would be sufficient. I have asked the seller if storage could be upgraded as some 3190's can be, but I suspect that the eMCC onboard would not permit that. The item is dirt cheap £30'ish and has Gorilla glass and rubberised edges and is light weight so would be easy to use at a table or comfy sofa. Seller seems pretty decent as I asked about locked bios and he replied quickly saying it was unlocked. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/126926416555 Quote
securitybreach Posted February 10 Posted February 10 Should be ok for light browsing and such. The distro doesnt matter as much since all of them will install on it. Quote

If it turns out to be not suitable then I can always sell it on locally as suitable for a child. 1 Quote
