Thanks for your comments and recommendation.

I too believe Linux is under reported as a percentage of the computer market. But Linux is it's own enemy in some ways. There are too many varieties and ways of doing common things. Take software installation for example. Why can't developers agree on one method? Mac and Windows users can go to any web site and install software directly. Linux users have to go to a repository for their distribution, they're almost guaranteed to never find the latest version of anything.

But back to the subject. I may go to my local music store and buy a Linux compatible midi interface, or maybe even one made by Yamaha, with the understanding that I can return it if it doesn't solve my problems.
