I have done several of these now, mostly for schools and students, but also for a couple of churches and some elderly folks without a lot of money and perfectly good "old" computers that aren't used for gaming and CAD and stuff.

Nice friendly video! Presentation was good quality too.
I will share it will people "scared" of Linux/computers because it's not too techno-bable, me thinks

Lower cost computer than a Raspberry Pi, with a nicer OS

Bought even slower with 32bit intel single core 1400MHz, 2GB of ram and 15 minutes lasting battery. Cost about 25$. Some lag but not too slow to use. boot time under 3 minutes. Even ran light browser video games on it.

There is a trend in thinking a low space consumption distro to be good only for older machines. Personally, nowadays - regardless of the machine - I would hesitate to ever again go anything systemwise burdensome, like, a gigabyte of RAM usage just for basic operations, having the palette of options the GNU/Linux world provides. There is no excuse for running heavy operating systems. In fact, operating systems should vanish or turn minimum entirely, but that, is a separate issue.
