      I'm kind of afraid to ask, but what do y'all think
        of AV Linux?  It is more like an "appliance" than a
        distribution.  Pluses and minuses for that, I guess.  There are
        no security updates; you just use what you got (and hope for the
        best), until you install a new version. I get the new version
        every year or 2.  I keep a detailed list of steps and file
        backups, for how to re-configure a new version for my
        audio/piano system.  It gives me low latency and good
        performance, out of the box.

    I have used it and liked it.  I don't use it for my own production
    work simply because I need the environment as lean and simple as
    possible, I don't have use for most of what AV Linux gives.  If I
    did, I would go there very quickly and immediately, a huge amount of
    work is pre-done in that image.
