    I can’t see investing upgrades into HW that old (I know I could, just doesn’t seem like the best use of money in the long run).

    Also, my partner’s SW is only available for Windows and I don’t feel like teaching them enough Linux to run Wine under it.

      Well that hardware isn’t going to run a supported version of Windows anyway.

      2 GB of ram should be enough

          Windows 11 requires 4 GB of memory and a newer CPU. There is no way that’s officially supported by Microsoft.

          However, somehow I think you know that. Just keep in mind it probably will have issues and updates may not apply. (No security patches potentially)
