I am finally ready to jump back into the Linux world.

I have three older laptops. I am sure that one of them does not meet the 1024x768 display requirement mentioned in the article above. I am sure one of them had trouble with Linux wireless connections ten years ago or thereabouts.

Do you have any ideas as to which distributions of Linux would be wisest to look into to use on such older equipment? How would you suggest I research that question?

I did a very quick DuckDuckGo search and found this web page for linux distros on old laptops for 2020.

I hope that helps. I've heard some good things about Manjaro Linux in this regard, and it is listed as one of the top 10 best for old laptops.
