Hi.....Does anyone know how the Zorin os 9 would take on a laptop? I am asking before I venture into this. Thank you

I'm not one of the forum hosts, and still consider myself a Linux noobie, but perhaps I can get things rolling at least. What are the specs? 32 bit or 64 bit? How much ram? What kind of processor and graphics? In short, how old/new is this laptop? Do you currently have any problems with it? What do you currently have on it? If Windows, you can dual-boot quite easily. Unless this a very old machine, you shouldn't have any trouble installing Zorin on it. If it's a newer laptop in good working order, without any weird partitioning, it should be fine.
