new linux

[marbles]

i'm getting a new linux

which one to chose?

i only use internet browser (NO videos) and word processing software

it'll be a pos computer so whichever linux os uses the fewest resources would be best

what do you guys suggest and why

thx

No you won't ... this is a PG-13+ site and we have young Members (and their parents) to look after.

I'm giving you a break for a few weeks.
