One reason I'm excited about the Mint 20.1 release is that it's based on Ubuntu 20.04, which is an outstanding Linux desktop in its own right. This new version of Mint will be supported until 2025. So, if all goes well I plan on using it for years to come. Also:
As always, this new Mint will run on systems so low-powered you'd otherwise condemn them to the junkyard. For example, you only need a single GB of RAM, although 2GBs is recommended. For storage space, you only need 15GBs of disk space with 20GB recommended. And, as for your monitor and video, if it can support 1024×768 resolution, or even lower, you're in business.
