What is the best use for a Dell Latitude 5285 Tablet (16 GB RAM, 512 GB, i7-7600)? It is not appearing that its compatible with Linux per the lists provided though I did find 1 entry online of someone running Ubuntu on it from distrohopping. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you.

I’ve done this on a Dell 2n1 with Lubuntu and everything worked just fine. I wouldn’t be afraid to give it a shot, but make sure you back everything up before getting started.

It has nothing on it, I bought it used. Thank you so much for the advice! Hopefully, I can report a success story back soon! I’ve completed 2 computers and have one to go plus this 2-in-1. You guys rock!
