Hey everyone, I’m looking for a cheap, old laptop to put Linux on and mess around with. I mainly want to see if I can find replacement software for some of the stuff I do on my Windows desktop, but maybe also some light gaming with Steam and Heroic launcher. I’d like to get some opinions on what brands/models I should be looking for on Craiglist/Ebay/etc.? Thanks!


yep, this is how I made my transition into linux
Set up dualbooting windows 7 and Linux.
I think I only booted into 7 once in the following year, to recover some stuff off the drive before nuking it.
