Pruning LL3.0 32 bit for older hardware

[Ottawagrant]

This is just something that baffles me & shows my complete lack of understanding about Linux. Why is Linux Lite 1.0.0 the fastest OS on the planet, but Linux Lite 3.0 is not? As you state in your post WHAT do you have to do to new versions of LL to make them run like old versions? The fact that LL 1.0.6 & 1.0.8 will be out of support next Spring (April 2017) does not sit well. To those that say series one of Linux Lite is 'old', my reply is - 'so is Windows XP'. Remember it? The OS that actually worked? How I wish I had the skill to modernize older versions of Linux Lite.
