Cons

The operating system is not very pretty.
Con Can be somewhat slow to turn on
Once it is up and going it is unrivaled in speed, but it can be sluggish when it comes to turning on, restarting, or turning off.

It's a really sparse, bare-bones system, no automatic driver install for example. It can be quite hard for someone not used to Linux.
