Hi golinux,

I'm glad it demystified some things.

You're right. Plop Linux is useful only in the context of
experimentation, and is of no use as a computer for getting anything
done.

Plop is kind of like if you took your car, removed all the sheet metal,
doors, hood, trunk, and glass, removed all the smog control, replaced
all the electronic/computer stuff with an old-school distributor, and
replaced the transmission with direct drive.

Would you drive this 5 mile per gallon Frankenstein to work? HECK no.
Would you use it to learn more about cars and experiment by plug
replacing subsystems? Yes, that's exactly what you'd use it for.
