Release Notes & Free Download*


Quelitu 20.04 is ready to download & install but we are still updating other pages of this website...


Refurbish Your Old PC With a
Linux Alternative to Windows 10, 7, Vista.



Quelitu 20.04
Lubuntu 20.04 & Raspberry Pi OS (RPI), Ubuntu, and Debian are Linux operating systems that are fast and free alternative to Windows 10, Vista, and Windows 7.

They are ideal for refurbishing or upgrading older PCs as well as for use on the Raspberry Pi 4 mini PC (Single Board Computer), the cheapest computer on Earth at the moment.

Quelitu, which used to be a standalone OS, is now available as an add-on to these two OSes, adding many useful features to them (see Quelitu Features below).

Lubuntu, Raspberry Pi OS, Debian & Ubuntu

Lubuntu, Raspberry Pi OS, and Debian (Lxqt) are lightweight and user-friendly, making them a good choice for new Linux users. Ubuntu derivatives are also good options.


They come loaded with Firefox, Google Chrome, VLC, LibreOffice Suite, and a range of light applications and are fully scalable with more advanced software (Gimp, Banshee...) from the free Ubuntu/Debian repositories (see Software Guide) as well as some of Windows' favorites: Thunderbird, Skype, etc.

Their speed (low RAM usage) and compatibility with Windows formats (.doc, .docx, .xls, .xml, .pps, .ppd, .pdf, .jpg, .png, .mpg, .wmv, .avi, .mp3, .mp4, .zip...) makes them an ideal replacement for aging Windows Vista, and 7 as well as a great operating system for low-specification machines such as laptops, nettops, and netbooks. Of course, they are also great on new computers as a fast and free alternative to Windows 10.

Testimonials Stephen W., Toledo, Ohio, USA (July 2014):
"I downloaded your Quelitu Linux distro for my old netbook and it works fantastic!"

Softpedia User Comment (Sept. 10, 2016):
"Absolutely awesome Linux disro. Been using it for over a year now and have actually wiped 6 of my 8 Windows computers and installed this. Only reason I haven't wiped all 8 is because 1 is wife's and 1 I need Windows on to update some external devices...

Easily runs better and faster than any of the versions of Windows I've ever had installed on those 6 computers."

Quelitu recieved 4.5/5 stars
in its SOFTPEDIA Editor Review by Marius Nestor.


Thanks to Debian, Ubuntu, Lubuntu, LXDE, Enlightenment, Xfce, and apps developers whose various components are used in Quelitu and contribute to Linux's success.
