- oh, wait. I have an old PC I don't use much (2008 AD - Core 2 Duo). I was thinking about using it just for orgmode. Would you recommend me an OS?
What are the other specs for the machine, as in what's the RAM? This matters a ton because it means the difference of what desktop environment (DE) or Window Manager (WM) you could use. I would say for something that old, you might want to consider Debian, a lightweight Ubuntu variant (Lubuntu, Xubuntu, etc), Puppy Linux, or even Arch Linux.
