Why use Windows?
I have never understood why all those digital signs, information portals, ATMs, ad carousels etc. use Windows? All they usually do is play a video, a slide show or display some HTML and occasionally have some rudimentary input.
Using a pared down Linux installation would suffice. Why, then, install a whole Windows platform with code and features 95% of which you will never need but is nonetheless there to crash on you when you least expect it?
