I recently installed Linux Mint with xfce on an HP Stream 11
(Discontinued - someone on Amazon has 10 available for $140 each) with
Intel Celeron N4020, 4GB RAM and 64 GB SSD. I carry it on motorcycle
trips. So far so good. Works better than Windows 11 did. I thought about
making it dual boot, but came to my senses and dedicated the storage to
Linux.
