A little of all of the above. Gates is such a skanky little NWO monster. As far as modifying source code goes, perish the thought. I've been playing with linux distributions for a long time with no coding ability whatever. It's finally to the point where it installs itself and the few things you need are easy to get from package repositories or by copying and pasting scripts. Lot of info out there. Installed on a Dell Inspiron 5520 and everything worked immediately.
Good to know. I plan on finding out myself sometime in the near future.
