So /g/, what's a good lightweight OS for a 32-bit netbook?
This girl I dated left her's at my place around 2 years ago and its just been sitting around collecting dust upon its many "my little pony" stickers so I reformatted it with Windows 7 sp2 and gave it to my friend who's too poor to afford any electronics, let alone a computer for school.
Anyway, he's been complaining that it's been slow, which is expected from a tiny-ass netbook, but sometimes programs would just fail to start with no error message and multitasking is just plain impossible. The only reason I installed w7 is because I'm a casual and have never explored any linux based OSs. So I'm asking if there are any bare-bones OSs made for simple hardware that feature maybe just a file explorer, word processor and browser? I would really appreciate the help, and my friend needs something to do homework on.
Linux has never been relevant to my life up until now so that's why I'm asking for guidance.
