>> The other thing I like about Arch Linux is that it doesn't automatically check for updates, and it doesn't try to push updates on you.  Now that I have a system running the way I want, I can leave this system as is for the next 10 years if I wish and there won't be any broken programs due to buggy updates.  Oh what joy, again!

Ray, if you can do this kind of brainstorming while having the flu:  I'd want you in my think tank!  Hope you get well soon.
 
I'm a very low-end user.  I rarely use more than 30% of the available features in the audio software.  So staying up with the latest and greatest versions is not a concern of mine.  Hence maybe in 10 years I'll finally find a reason to upgrade.  And then again, maybe not.  The capabilities of current Linux audio software is very impressive.  Thanks to the Community.
 
Best,
Stephen.
