I ran Puppeee on my original which loaded completely to ram and only wrote to disk every 10 minutes or when prompted due to the early ssds very limited life span. It helped me get through folkhögskola and was small enough to let me easily work on the 1 hour 30 min bus ride to and from school. I think that model was called 4G and it was even tighter keyboard than my current due to åäö-keys being almost half width

Not a screenshot since I havent set up any internet communication except package installing yet, but a bad photo is manageble. Now I just have to figure out how to make a specific user that automatically boots into Abiword on login!

Last time I helped my mother with her laptop Windows had ruined her updater and it took me ages to sort out. Win11 is not a user friendly OS out of the box, with horrible experience searching for fixes. On the other hand Linux has a ton of friendly people ready to help or who posts guides (with datestamps!)
