Hi Xalius, I didn't even try to start office, and not even tried to open more than 1 tab of the browser as with one tab was already so slow that was practically impossible to use. I would be more than happy to find an alternative lightweight distro, but so far doesn't looks like there is one that works on the PINE a64. Do you know any?
