A warm welcome Smile Enjoy the LL journey.
PS. No such thing as old, it's all just an attitude of mind, that is of course until the body starts falling apart, LOL ...
64bit OS (32-bit on Samsung[i] netbook) installed in [i]Legacy mode on MBR-formatted SSDs (except pi which uses a micro SDHC card):
2017 - Raspberry pi 3B (4cores) ~ [email protected] - LibreElec, used for upgrading our Samsung TV (excellent for the task)  
2012 - Lenovo G580 2689 (2cores; 4threads] ~ [email protected] - LL3.8/Win8.1 dual-boot (LL working smoothly)
2011 - Samsung NP-N145 Plus (1core; 2threads) ~ Intel Atom [email protected] - LL 3.8 32-bit (64-bit too 'laggy')
2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work

Welcome to the forum, here is another Linux Lite newbie.
Congratulations for choosing LL, this seems to be the best Operating System for personal use,
as far as I have had time to use it - a couple of days only - but no problems whatsoever so far.

And more than that, congrats for the retirement!
Have fun with LL and have a nice and warm summer.

Thanks again to all of you.

Paul, I absolutely detest Windows 10 and can't wait for the warranty to run out on that computer so I can install Linux!!!!  Hope I learn how to operate Linux distros quickly before changing.  Getting around isn't so bad but some things are so different!!!!
