Hello,

I am new here and fairly new to Linux. I work for a school system and am trying to repurpose some old laptops that are too slow to run Windows XP or 7. I am trying to make the laptops look like Windows 7 so that our users won't be lost.

I have found some tutorials and videos online, but none have worked. They all seem to be geared for a specific version of Ubuntu that uses something different to manage their desktops. Can anyone help?

Thanks.

From the desktop point of view to access libreoffice, web browser, documents ect. is not that different. Well thatīś only my opinion.
