So, I have an old mac mini, one of the flat ones. You know, it’s shaped more flat than the new ones.

I want to put Linux Mint on there.

Or maybe Ubuntu

and then, I am going to buy a really cheap monitor on eBay.

I’m leaning towards Ubuntu because that’s what everyone said would work. Some people in the comments are also saying this. I’ve never installed Linux on a Mac before.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
