      You could do it on your current one. No reason to wait. I’m going strong with Linux as my primary OS for 3 years.

        I’m on an off lease office box that is almost old enough to vote.

        Linux is why this thing is even marginally useful.

            Prescicely.

            Does it do the latest and greatest? No. Am I wholly happy with it? No.

            However it works. that is the important part.

      Dual boot your current one so you have a choice to learn Linux at your own pace! Still have w11 for a fall back just on case.

        How hard is it to dual boot it? I’m about to pull the trigger, just need an evening free to do it

          Not hard at all. If you install Windows first, the Linux install should add a windows entry to the bootloader splash screen.

          If you do it the other way, you have to do a lot more work to get them to play nice.
