HP Compaq 6720s - easiest Distro to setup (and use for a windower)
by jeff_f from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5KJAH)
Bought a used HP Compaq 6720s for my son to use. He hasn't used Linux. It had a newly installed Win 10. Found that it wasn't activated and the the Windows Vista tag on it didn't give the update rights of 7 & 8.
I have gotten a lot of old computers to run quite well with various Puppy linux distros. I've previously toyed a bit with Ubuntu.
Some searching has given me the impression that there could be problems with Wifi, touch pad, bluethooth etc drivers for some linux distros for this modell.
Any one that has experience with this modell and what distro works well.
This machine has 3 Gb RAM
