If I say wanted to install Debian on an older apple laptop, how successful would the effort be in general?
Well Apple hardware being Apple hardware is often not trivial to work with because it seems to be explicitly designed to not make it easy to run anything other than Apple software on it. Non standard boot methods, non standard hardware interfaces. Definitely not the easiest option. On the other hand there are often a lot of them sold so you might find good information on making a particular model work. -- Len Sorensen
