i have a laptop here with a gemini lakeceleron n4000, 4gb ram, and 64gb emmc. it barely meets the requirements imposed by microsoft for win11.
windows 11 on it is as horrible as you might imagine. someone brought me one very similar last week to ‘fix’… basically same model but with upgrade to 16gb ram. was not any better at all. essentially unusable, just like mine. their ‘fix’ was buying a new ryzen 5 laptop 12 hrs later.
How slow would that windows box be with the minimum specs? That seems like it would be a nightmare.
Linux on the other hand will run on anything and it’s glorious!

If you just let it run idle, it runs great! /s
