I hate to pop your bubble, but it really is that easy on most of those units. I myself(and others have done it). This is VERY old news.

Okay? If your happy with it, then use it. Duh...
They are however very limited due to the speed limitaions (among other things). Very high bit rate Audio and most Video will need higher bit rates than it can handle. As for backups, for small backups, sure. But for large amounts of data, I know very few people who want their computer doing a backup or restore that could be many days or even weeks.

While I can't prove either way, I stronly suspect you are way way off base on that one. I would have to say there are more 4xxx units out there in homes being still used than any others. And yes, that includes both Snap OS and GOS units.

As long as I get my data back and not have to pay lots of $$$ to have it recovered.

Who cares? Most people I know of do. Very few have small enough amounts of data anymore, or time enough they want to burn, to use that type unit for realistic backups.
You can get far better, larger, faster, and just as much or more reliable backups for next to nothing $ wise these days. Have you even looked around? Really?

And my point is, very little of what you said was accurate or useful to much of anyone coming to read here.
That last part was a bold face lie. MANY MANY other people have done it, including myself and at least 5 people I can think of instantly off the top of my head from this forum. And long before Bitor ever came to this forum (or me either).
I seriously have to wonder what Bitor paid you or did for you or you owe him to get you to make a statement so full of crap as that one. WOW
SNAP OS Users, Listen to David (blue68f100) for advice. He is by far, and I mean leaps and bounds more versed in the those units than anyone else I know of here on the forum. And so far above Bitor it can't be described.
