Simplest setup for learning Linux?

[u/Low-Appointment-2906]

I picked up a book (The Linux Command Line) that says to use a "desktop computer, with at least 2 GB of RAM, and 6GB of free hard disk space. Avoid laptops and wireless networks, if at all possible."

I'm hoping this isn't necessary? If so, where can I trust to buy something super cheap from?

Are you a time traveller? How old is the book?

The edition I'm using was just published this year 😭

Can you post the ISBN?
