Hello. I bought a new computer recently, and the computer I’m replacing is still good, but it only works as a tablet now. I’m considering putting Linux on it, but would it be worth it or should I get rid of my old computer? Thanks!

It’s a Lenovo 2 in 1, 256gb hard drive, windows 11. I’d be using for browsing, media. I’d be using my newer computer more but the old computer would be a backup. I’d mostly use it to try out Linux distro.
Unfortunately this type of computer (2 in 1, x86 tablets, etc.) has generally very limited IO and a strange BIOS configuration (32-bit UEFI) that makes installing Linux difficult than on a normal laptop (not impossible though).
You will need to provide us with the exact model you have in order to know exactly what’s ahead of you.
