You think that I trust the opinions of the general Linux community on much of anything? This is the community that brought us GNOME et al. Any search for opinions of usability will include the gamut covering the two extremes that now exist, "Those weirdos use a command-line, don't worry about them" to "What's a compiler?" And none of which tells you how often the sucker crashes, wiping out your data or bricking the external device. You'll get lots of "data points" of people saying "it didn't crash for me, therefore it's perfect and you're Wrong". I trust the bitter hard-won experiences of this list far more. -Phil
