Hello Linux.org,
I just install Linux Mint 19.1 Tessa Xfce (64 bit) and OOTB the install and updates and the additional software I installed worked without any issues or problems on my 2009 Frankenstein build desktop.
I have read mixed reviews from users on other forums although I can't find anything to complain about at this time of posting.
I think it's worthy of a test drive and should a user like it enough to install I would recommend a clean install and not an upgrade.
My 2 cents.
