You haven't given any useful info. What are the specs? What do you plan to use it for? Media? Gaming? Data storage? Please be more specific.
It's a Lenovo 2 in 1, 256gb hard drive, windows 11. I'd be using for browsing, media. I'd be using my newer computer more but the old computer would be a backup. I'd mostly use it to try out Linux distro.
Unfortunately this type of computer (2 in 1, x86 tablets, etc.) has generally very limited IO and a strange BIOS configuration (32-bits UEFI) that makes installing Linux more difficult than on a normal laptop (not impossible though).
You will need to provide us with the exact model you have in order to know exactly what's ahead of you.
