Our church runs a once a week after school program for the children of a neighboring elementary school { in U.S. education-speak it is a "title 1 - severely underprivileged school"}. We run on donated hardware. Up to now the machines came with misc versions of MS Windows. A local company will donate several additional machines. Due to license issues, they will come without Windows. One of their staff has stated that Linux Mint would be suited for the "obsolete" hardware being donated and has volunteered to install it on each of those machines.

My question:
Is there any reason that a Ubuntu version Mint would be any more suitable than a custom install of Debian - especially as there is a choice of kernels? Question is vague, to a degree intentionally. Where/what should I be reading?

P.S.
There *WAS* a reason for some of my weird question of last year or more ;/ I saw this on the horizon. Just did not know EXACT form it would take :}

TIA
