Yup. Especially Zorin. I'm running it on a laptop that was Windows answer to Chromebooks. It has 4 gigs of memory but only 64 gigs of disk space. Installed, Zorin 16 Core uses less than 12 gigs of disk space and purrs along using under a gig of RAM. And it's lightning fast.

Built a NAS with Linux Lite, its been running for a couple years. They include a very simple to use SAMBA file sharing template that's perfect for a simple cheap home file server.
Cloned a win10 box with a failing HDD yesterday. Micro$oft sucks and HP sucks right along with them. I thought I had been set free of them after I retired but family insists on abusing my good will by dropping off screwed up computers.
