So how would I go about installing Linux on my shitty $200 refurbished Dell laptop? Would it continue to support my USB docking station with mouse keyboard and three monitors? What about remoting into work?

I don't otherwise particularly do anything on it. No gaming or any such thing.

Yes. One question, what software does your company use to connect remotely?

[-] Got_Bent@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

All I can see is that it's an RDP extension

Type: remote desktop connection

Otherwise I didn't see a product name in properties

Chances are you'd be fine. Either using something like remina, or a web Citrix client.
