FYI
Latest 64b Lubuntu 18.04 (https://lubuntu.net/) with Wine (https://www.winehq.org/) + corefonts (https://wiki.winehq.org/Winetricks) works just fine in my 5y old HP AMD laptop. Wine gives some overhead but it's only +2..3% compared to Windows 10.

btw. Sierra has been the reason why I am still using Windows 10 in my multi monitor desktop workstation and now planning to switch Linux over there too.

Linux is just so much less hassle with forced updates and other suspicious network activity. Everything is configurable and can be turned on or off. Lubuntu is also very lightweight OS leaving resources for the productivity (specially RAM). With wine and mono I still have an option to run windows apps if it is absolutely necessary. In my case thanks to libreoffice (https://www.libreoffice.org/) I don't have any other reason than Sierra why to use windows apps anymore.
