- oh, wait. I have an old PC I don't use much (2008 AD - Core 2 Duo). I was 
thinking about using it just for orgmode. Would you recommend me an OS?

What are the other specs for the machine, as in what's the RAM?

This matters a ton because it means the difference of what desktop environment 
(DE) or Window Manager (WM) you could use.

I would say for something that old, you might want to consider Debian, a 
lightweight Ubuntu variant (Lubuntu, Xubuntu, etc), Puppy Linux, or even Arch 
Linux.

Sincerely,

Sam
