Spam. Troll. Waste of time.

I got a phone call a week back from a new user who wanted to debate whether
Linux systems stored passwords vs other OS's that don't. He kept referring
to "back when Linux was more popular than it is now" .  After I tried to
correct his misunderstanding of how passwords are used, he threatened to
"come to Atlanta and beat me up". I hung up. The number was from area code
604.

There is Ubuntu Studio - which I've never seen/used. Never needed that.
Distros are just a convenience 99% of the time. Any linux install can
run pretty much any linux program with next to zero effort for end-user
tools just a few installs from a repo away.

Audio and video have "just worked" in Linux for about a decade. Of
course, there are always a small percentage of systems that have odd
hardware where things don't "just work."

So what, exactly, do you mean by "handle?"
