There are likely more variations that you will get answers.

Some questions:
1. software that you must have (small amounts or large amounts)
2. have you /are you thinking of doing any container or vm stuff
3. what have you used just recently

I set my systems up different than most but then it seems my work patterns
are 'weird' so I make things so they work for me and am not too worried
about
what they look to other people. (Have had 'experts' say what I was doing
was
weird!)
