MX Linux MX-19 (64-bit)

MX is a joint venture of the antiX and former MEPIS communities. Like its predecessor MEPIS, MX has the goal of providing a simple and stable desktop with a best-in-class selection of practical tools.
Zorin OS 15 Core (64-bit)
Zorin OS Core is a Linux distro focused on serving as a drop-in replacement to Windows or macOS. Their stated hope is to let newcomers transition to Linux so you "…won't need to learn anything to get started."
