Is it possible to find the latest BIOS version for a Packard Bell netbook?

Hi everyone, I bought an old Packard Bell dot S2 nav50, in mint condition. Today it arrived, and I wanted to update the BIOS to its latest version before taking off Windows 7 and putting Linux on it (probably Debian). The Packard Bell site does not have the BIOS downloads anymore though, does anyone know any kind of site/archive that could help me? Any help would be much appreciated.

i'm in love with my old acer netbook

i just love netbooks, they aren't powerful but they can run a modern linux/bsd operating system with a modern browser and are smaller than a regular school notebook which makes it perfect to put it on my backpack so i can finish a essay whatever i am, today there are better options like an cheap android tablet with an keyboard but you can find nice netbooks (even the more newer ones with 2/4 cores) for less than 50$.

btw i'm writing this using mypal on windows xp sp3

What is the most functional OS for a netbook in 2022?

I have an AAO D250 and ubuntu is horrible. i would install windows XP, but its not much better given that i cant even web browse with it. i could use it as an RDP portal to more functionality, but i feel like there is more potential here despite its age. I just discovered this community and i think its great! Anyone got any good advise?
