I just got a new laptop that has an Intel Celeron Quad-Core processor of 1.83 GHz. On the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS website, they say the recommended minimum processor requirements are of 2.5 GHz. Are they talking about 2.5 GHz for just a single core, or a total of 2.5 GHz combined from all cores (in my case, 4 cores)?
And my laptop also has 4 GB RAM and a solid state drive. Should I install 16.04 or 14.04? Thanks.
