I would just add an SSD and some ram. Some years back I took a crappy netbook that was running XP and gave it a clean install of Win7 and it was a lot better.

Don't even think you can add ram to these. Though suppose I could check. If I can bring it up to 4 then it would run win7 half decently. CPU would be the bottleneck instead of the HDD as it would not be swapping like insanity. SSD would be ideal too but I don't really want to spend much money on it.
 
Bed time soon, got up early this morning, probably why I'm tired. I barely did anything today, plumber came in the morning, changed my valve, then rest of day I just drank coffee, neffed and watched videos lol.

How old is your nephew? I know you are a fan of Linux, but it's just not for the mainstream. It's for nerds that like to spend hours trying to make something work that just works in Windows. I guess if Uncle Squirrel is nearby tech support is never too far away. 😀
