If I want to let a vendor decide what I will and willnot have in a core
component of an OS I'll switch to M$ :)
and yes I prefere roll your own, I'm not going to ever need 98% of for
example the network devices that come configured, conversley I'm not going
to watch bluetooth, sound and 60% of the crud they include on a production
