Hey guys, I'm new to linux and want a lightweight desktop environment that will accommodate my 4gb i5 surface pro 3 i just bought. I feel with 4gb of ram windows 10 won't run smoothly when i'm painting etc. if anyone has any suggestions on distros to try then let me know! i really prefer a mac to windows so was going to try deepin with their pen support however i hear they're desktop is quite demanding.

Not off the top of my head, no.

What are you going to use this for? The whole 2 in 1 thing and drivers are built around a specific OS, generally Windows. Touch, pen, screen rotation...you'd have to find a specific Linux distro that is known to work with a specific device.
