Great, I couldn't have said it better man. Linux is for technicians and moderate to advanced users, definitely. My repeater, prime example, you guys know it runs Linux. And how many times in the past year has it crashed? Twice. I don't touch it. I don't use it. I don't install things. It just runs my repeater software. But twice I've had a journal crash. And then I had to log in. I had to type in FSCK forward slash Y forward slash blah, blah, blah and recover the journal. And that's running Debbie in 10 I believe, Debbie in 8 maybe, which is a relatively newer version of Windows. And the reason the file system, the journal panicked was because when the repeater would freeze up, I'd hold the power button and shut it off. Like you do with Windows, right? Windows freezes up, you hold the power button, shut it off, reboot it. It will reboot fine in Windows. It will reboot fine in Mac. You do that more than a couple of times on Linux and you will get file system issues, journaling issues. And I didn't know anything about it. I had to learn and I was able to fix the repeater. But how many weeks was that down before I learned? And I'm an advanced user before I learned how to fix a journaled file system. Several weeks at a time. V01 UKZ.
