Well, it’s a Lenovo Ideapad S145 with an Intel Celeron and 4GB of RAM. I’m writing this on it. I want it to be slightly faster at browsing the internet. I use Chrome, I know that’s awful xD

    Three steps:

    1. If you can afford it, upgrade to a SSD.
    2. Install Linux Mint XFCE or Fedora XFCE.
    3. Use Min Browser. In my tests, with a netbook with an Atom processor and 2GB RAM, it’s infinitely faster than Firefox or any other Chromium.

    Profit.

      Second Linux Mint. I have a Surface that absolutely slogged under Windows 10 with 4gb ram. Mint gave me a ton of headroom to work with.
