From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I hope you have ssd and maxed out ram. 15 years is Core2Duo right?
Try HaikuOS, KolibriOS and the third option could be Ubuntu or Kubuntu. I'm sure Gnome and Kde will run just fine, but lxqt is marketed as the ost lighweight Linux DE.
But try Haiku and Kolibri for real even they don't run on Linux Kernel.
Yes I will give it ssd and yes it has max RAM. We'll see how it will do. Waiting on ssd.
