Hiyall,
I have a 2011 netbook N455 that has served me well. Even though it says that it's 64 bit, it has only ever worked satisfactorily with 32 bit OSs. The last OS on there is Mint XFCE. It's not very fast and assuredly will get slower with time.

Which Sparky DE do you recommend? Its intended use is only as an audio player. It will need a pdf reader, a text writer and v-e-r-y occasional use of a simple browser. Mainly for upgrades...and that's it!

You are the typical 'mónguer' spammer, copying and repeating point by point and even using the same title, of an old thread post from more than a year ago

Personally, in your particular case, I would choose LXQt or MinimalGUI (OpenBox).

As an example, I can tell you that my work netbook, (an AMD with two cores at 1.35Ghz and 4 Gb of RAM). OpenBox consumes about 240 MB just started.
And in general everything works in a really satisfactory way.

You don't seem to be too bright.

 WTF are you replying in a dead thread, opened by a shitty spammer?

Today isn't your day. Tomorrow doesn't look good either.

I don't remember me asking about your opinions.
I wish I could have as much time as you to input into other people's business.
