hello,
i think it's a very well balanced and realistic survey, highlighting the
advantages but not hiding the difficulties and shortcomings of linux as an
audio workstation.
here are two minor suggestions:
1) 7.2, picking the right distribution
i know that there are literally hundreds of distributions out there, and
that it's impossible to mention them all, but i really think that, since
you're mentioning different approaches (using pre-compiled binaries, rpms,
debs, compiling from sources, ebuilds, live cds, etc), a line dedicated to
Linux from Scratch would be pertinent, since it means a completely different
approach, building the whole linux system from sources
(http://www.linuxfromscratch.org)
2) 7.3, obtaining audio software
where you mention Thac's rpm and turnkey, i'd add audioslack for the
slackware distribution (http://www.audioslack.com/)
best,
lj
