    Linux, on the other hand, can easily boot up on a 10-year-old laptop with just 2GB of RAM, and work fine.

    I’m not sure a modern day browser would be just fine with “only” 2GiB, unfortunately.

      There’s Linux dists that can only requires less than 200 MB of RAM. Absolute Linux for an example, has a minimum system requirement of 64 MB RAM. Plenty of space left for memory hungry softwares like a browser.
