hi
I'm looking at formatting my HD and reinstalling everything on my old-ish PC. Its a duel-core with 8 gig memory. Massive hard drive.
Its just for browsing the internet really. I previously had windows XP.
I'm thinking of alternative operating systems to windows, the free ones, like Linux etc since its only for browsing, some letter writing etc etc.
Can anyone advise a modern free OS to use? I heard MINT is pretty good? any other alternatives? I dont want anything complicated to set up or use, but I always find Windows ends up getting slower and slower as I use it so looking for an alternative to Windows 8.
thanks
