That is not necessarily a good thing. I would rather say it may be risky (not
tested well enough).

What are these?

I don't and I am not planning one for the moment. I just don't see why I
should buy yet another buggy (and low performance) CPU.

Thanks. My 2 cents on less popular distros would be the community support. I
have been using SUSE (now openSUSE) for many years and I really like it. 10+
years ago I also used Red Hat for a while, tried Debian (and couldn't stick
to it, looked too difficult at that time). What I like about SUSE is not only
the ease of use and stability but also the great community support and the
speed at which bugs are handled. Yesterday for example I found a critical bug
in the latest NVIDIA driver and reported it. A few hours later people have
been finding (and perhaps already found) ways to fix it. Also when more
people are using/testing something that makes it better verified. I am not
sure if exotic distros can offer anything like that - that's my main concern
with them.
