Old laptop New life

Just wanted to say how impressed I am. I have installed Q4OS on a Samsung laptop That I bought in 2012 and it is amazing. The laptop has been struggling with various versions of Ubuntu, Lubuntu etc but now is responsive and a useful machine again. Installation was simplicity itself and adding a few extra programs has been equally simple.

Thank you all so much

I've got Q4OS Trinity on a 2008 Acer Aspire.  It's very quick and I like it.
