Google Chromebooks are cheaper laptops that work via a browser, the Operating System is in the Cloud.
Appreciate I have posted options to convert older PCs (Or modern ones) to Linux systems but ChomeOS is another option and recently made easier.
Video explains options.

Thanks for the video! I may need another laptop as my Alien is overheating. I've ordered a battery to test if that's the issue, but my dh believes it's a fan. I recently was able to upgrade my old Mac to a newer operating system, just in case. I've picked out a replacement laptop if I need to get a new one, but your Google Chromebook is worth a look. :)

Seems Microsoft are extending support now for a further year but on condition you sign in on Microsoft's cloud system.
Following video simply explains how you can get the update by signing in but then effectively sign out of the condition. I don't use Windows so haven't tried it but it looks easy enough.

Thanks for that update on Microsoft though I can see where their motivation is that you use their cloud system. I guess they are hoping you will run out of storage space and have to upgrade to a paid version?
Video links are always helpful when you are trying to do something new.

The Chromebook option is worth considering as you can run it from USB flash memory. Bit slower to load but once up and running then it works normally.
For most computer users who just want to browse the web, write a few letters, send emails, watch videos etc Chromebook is an economical option.

Yeah, the USB flash memory would work very well. The Chromebook sounds like a nice option for basic tasks. I need a pc that can handle big tasks lol! :D
