Hey guys.
I got this old Lenovo T61 laptop with Intel core 2 duo and 1Gb ram. I had XP installed, but since XP is lost customer support today, I need an alternative.
This computer is going to be for my dad, so he basically needs it for browsing, skype and solitaire. I have installed Linux Mint 16 and I really like it, but he doesn't. He got used to Windows and he said he doesn't like the looks of few applications, like skype etc. (no seriously, skype looks horrible on linux)
Can you guys help me think of an alternative? I need an operating system that will work. I'm thinking about getting pirated Windows 7 Starter or Tiny 7 (I never had pirated windows, but now I really need to do something), but I don't know what are the risks
