Do you have an old PC lying around gathering dust? How about a small-capacity USB flash drive sitting, unloved in a drawer? You can reuse your old computer and a USB flash drive by installing a tiny Linux distribution.
Mini Linux distros are great as they require fewer system resources than other options yet still deliver a whole operating system experience, and we have nine of the smallest Linux distros for you to choose from.
The reason why I gave Linux a serious look was due to how lightweight it can be and how it can make crappy hardware run fast.
It’s like taking a 0.66L 3-cylinder engine from a big SUV (Windows) to a motorcycle (lightweight Linux distro). And then it does 0-60 in under 4 seconds (the system runs super fast).
