Hi,
I own this Acer laptop running Linux, and I’m considering switching to Windows. Which version—Windows 7, 8, or 10—is compatible with my hardware? Also, is Linux still supported for this model?

Don't use Win7, it's no longer supported.
Windows 8.1 should function properly for you, even with a netbook that has limited hardware.
Windows 10 is also an option, though it tends to receive frequent updates that might affect your laptop's performance.
