Computer Help and Support

My brother, the least techie person in the universe got tired of every update breaking his drivers and having to reinstall them, so he ended up with a Dell ordered online, with Ubuntu Linux, installed and supported. After helping him find substitutes for office and photo apps, he hasn't asked me anything in many years. It's that usable.

Here are some helpers

People seem to love Linux Mint the most.
There are also slim distributions that run on very old and low-memory hardware.
I recall Xubuntu and Puppy Linux (extremely light)

I still love my now outdated Knoppix. I keep pleading with Klaus Knopper to update it, but I guess he's making a living instead. I used to boot computers off a CD/DVD to see if they'd run linux (store people were not amused), and used it to repair hosed PC's

(1). I booted a windows system off Knoppix or System Rescue CD (now, it's USB stick) https://www.system-rescue.org/ and mounted the windows partition and edited the registry. Kinda complex, but I had no budget to do that stuff.I was the IT dept, so it was "legal" to do.
