Some "minus" point of "users supported
things" from the point of view if
"Non opensource maniac user" is :
1. No user-frendly (fancy ?) user interface
2. No specificaly-designed (fancy) docs
3. No one to blame

In my area .. they always ask for "hardware
router" .. and resist for
"software router".
They forgot that hardware always need "Firmware"
which is a member of a big
family named "Software"
They'll pay for "guardian" rather then
"whatch each other back"

For me, please accept my apologize for just being an
opensource user with no
contribution to the opensource development

All I've done is shorten my son's name to "LRP",
the starting point of LEAF

Sincerely
