    Switched my old laptop over to linux with little to no problems yester-day. So far this machine is over 5 years old and by far the oldest I've ever had. My hope is to use it til the wheels fall off.

    I would rate the process 'medium' difficulty. If you have access to help, another pair of eyes on your install and configuration couldn't hurt. In some cases you have to set items manually like the firewall for instance. Overall this experience was way better than the previous ones. There are tens of thousands of app choices now compared to back then and most hardware is no problem at all.

    You will feel fast, safe, and secure.

    *****Edited to add*****

    So a problem surfaced and it took about an hour or two to sort out but this is what I was expecting and I got it solved but someone not so into computers might have struggled with it. So you got to be careful if your learning from the get go.
