I agree the flash is going to be slower, from my experience. I do think 4GB RAM is enough for a Linux machine. This computer would be all my wife would need - email, surfing the internet, and occasional letter writing.

Looking at the actual machine, note that it only has 4GB of RAM, which
is likely not upgradeable, and 128GB of UFS storage (not NVME), and
thus is likely not upgradable either. So, that's all it's going to
have ever, and the disk is going to be a bottleneck, at least for
writes.

It's basically a CPU with just the Efficiency cores of a U or P
series processor I believe. They're pretty good from what I've seen,
much better than the older celeron J and N series processors.

The N200 CPU has a decent benchmark with 4 cores and 4 treads...

Seems like it would make a nice Linux machine.
