I have a very old laptop with the following specs:
Intel Centrino Duo @ 1.83GHz
RAM 1.49 GB
Currently it runs Windows Server 2003 R2 (for some reason).
I want to install a Linux distro,(much preferably) Ubuntu.. in order to develop a Python/Django app.
Which Ubuntu version should I go for?
Please tell me if you need further info about the laptop.
From the ubuntu wiki page concerning lubuntu
We have done many tests and we've found out that Lubuntu can be installed on a Pentium II or Celeron system with 128 MB of RAM, but such a system would not perform well enough for daily use.
With 256MB - 384MB of RAM, the performance will be better and the system will be more usable.
With 512MB of RAM, you don't need to worry much.
The default "Desktop" installer requires 384-800 MB of RAM (depending on selected options.) If you have problems, please use the alternative installer.
