Dug out my old Toshiba Portege M200 #tablet this evening!This was a Tablet PC from around 2004, shipped with Windows XP Tablet PC Edition and Office 2003.Not checked for updates since 2016, and running a 14 year old operating system. Looks like Microsoft did suggest Windows 10 for it back in the day, but with only 1GB RAM maybe not the best choice.Might install #LinuxMint - gotta be version 19 though as its a 32-bit processor!!! Expecting to have to switch to Debian soon! 😂

@paul Prob. the best choice. Ubuntu stopped with 18.04 LTS (which expires standard support this year) and Fedora ended 32-bit on Version 30. Debian 11 should have some years left of updates still.

@paul Another 32-bit option you might look at is MXLinux. It ran nicely on an old Asus netbook I had.

@uninventive yeah think Debian are still supporting 32-bit until at least 2026. Thanks!
