It is a 'throw away' system only for all the video conferences I have 
had to be on this past year.  It is on its own network behind its own 
firewall rules.

Real work is on Fedora32 (will upgrade when F34 released, I skip 
releases) and Win10 when I have to (e.g. TurboTax).

All of these have specific Win apps (and why I run them on Win, not Fedora).  Well sometimes if I used one program and then needed to switch to another, I have learned to reboot, as sometimes they don't let go of audio and video...
