due to the situation regarding covid, school will be online for who knows how long. Now, in my family there are not enough computers for everyone to use at the same time. I've found an old HP 250 G3 ( 2 GB of working memory, a 500 GB hard drive and an Intel Celeron N2830 2.16ghz) laptop laying around I thought was broken. It has windows 10 installed but it works very slow and the windows is bloated with programs/apps no one uses. Due to financial reasons it would be optimal if the old HP could be somehow revived with Ubuntu :). Now my questions are:



  • can linux be sufficient for light school work for children aged 7-10?

  • can I run Microsoft Teams on ubuntu? is it stable?

  • which version/flavour of Ubuntu would be optimal?


Thank you very much for taking the time to read and answer my questions!

For your given system requirement, Lubuntu would be best suited


Minimum hardware requirements for Lubuntu:


RAM: 1 GB of RAM


CPU: Pentium 4 or Pentium M or AMD K8 or higher


Talking of Microsoft Teams, it is not necessary to install Teams as an App by default. I myself been using Teams daily on Browser. You could Sign In through this link: https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/microsoft-365/microsoft-teams/group-chat-software


Moreover Microsoft Teams is more stable, updated and faster in Browser Version compared to Desktop App.


My recommended browser would be Vivaldi over Firefox as it is the Fastest Web Browser
