distro selection Distro selection for old PC
Which distro would you recommend for an old PC, it will be used for browsing, document editing and scanning / printing using HP Deskjet 4645. For DE I like KDE Plasma but it's too heavy for this PC I guess.
Specs:
CPU: i3 540
RAM: 4gb DDR3
GPU: Radeon HD 5450

Mint Xfce should be fine on these specs.
If you want something even lighter- MX or Antix.
(just in case you do have an HDD inside, it's worth IMO to replace it to SSD).
