The "Linus" of "Linus tech tips" is very hard to listen to -- and
apparently doesn't know what a Unix workstation is.

I've build my Linux systems throughout the years, but this time, I'm
old enough that I wanted a turnkey Linux workstation.  (My time was very
valuable when I bought it.)

Further, I've already used System76's tech support for one issue, and
they were very responsive.  I don't think I'd get that with NewEgg.
