If you're even the least bit interested you really should try it. I swapped my 79 year old mother-in-law over to Pop and she hasn't had an issue yet going on 4 years.

I did that well over 10 years ago for my mother in law and she loved it. She did basic browsing and a few games here and there, windows always fucked up and had to be reinstalled every few months.

I installed Linux, Kubuntu I believe, and it was the end of it. Never heard a peep again.
