Mitt's response reminded me of a post that was made to the forum earlier today in the topic "Windows explained to Devuan supporters" at https://talk.devuan.org/t/windows-explained-to-devuan-supporters/139/10 :

************************

Linux = Pen testing
Windows = everything else

There are no advantages in using any linux distros other than pen testing and that it can be installed on a USB key(and I think that's very cool). Even Software Defined Radio (SDR) with maybe the exception of GMS intercepting and decoding, has more development under Windows. Night and day. One works extremely well on all PCs and permits the User to actually be productive and do things. The other one is a clunky Windows wannabe with a couple of specialized advantages that most don't care about. So..

YES
I like its functionality, its popularity(more software dev and hardware support), its clarity and ease of use.
The only thing wrong with my Windows is its lack of pen testing capability, and that is why I'm here (KL2 using Debian8 and now looking for an alternative with Dev-one as a base), otherwise I would >> n e v e r << bother with anything linux, life is too short

I'll spare you my personal thoughts on this evaluation of Linux but looking forward to all of yours. :)
