Why can't you install Windows 10 Creators Update on your old Atom netbook? Because Intel stopped loving you

Re: Good luck getting reliable support runing Linux on those obsolete silicons

Installed Linux Mint with MATE on an Intel Atom Netbook a little less than 24 hours ago. Found all the hardware, Wifi, Nic, USB ports, SD Port, Bluetooth, mouse pad, everything. Even running with hardware video acceleration.

Runs okay, too. Better than the somewhat creaky Win 7 that was on it before.

Perfect.
