So I've got this old dell laptop which is the dell Inspiron 15R 5521 and it has the i5-337U cpu @1.8GHz which is a dual core cpu, with 6 gb of ram, and a 500gb hdd.
Pretty much I want to use the laptop for some small tasks and to bring to school once in a while to take notes however it's quite slow atm running windows 10 and I'm wondering what distro of linux I should get.
I heard from a friend to get Ubuntu because it has lots of features but I was looking at Lubuntu because it's more lightweight and might help with battery life and to speed things up and also I might not need all the features offered in Ubuntu.
Which dsitro of linux would you recommend?
