Thanks. I just gotta get my wife to hurry up and buy her own thing.

You can try making a virtual machine with a 20 GB virtual hard drive to try out different Linux distros in the meantime.

Thanks. I will look into learning how to do this.

To make things simpler in the long run, I recommend looking into using Ventoy on a thumb drive, if you'd like to just try out various versions of Linux without installing anything. There are handy guides on YouTube.
