Possibly OT, my main beef with Linux and Windows is that they keep wanting to update themselves and the effort to "manage" these updates is enormous (less so with Ubuntu, but still great). With Plan 9, I find I can control the updating process and do not feel I'm leaving myself exposed whenever I do. Of course, the factors involved are very different, but I have a suspicion that with Windows and Linux one relinquishes control at too deep a level and the continual updates are a particularly visible case of this loss of control. ++L
