I have a Pi I could play with this on. I'm understanding of the power of the
containers, a little hesitant on the ephemeral nature of them. I kinda want
to have the experience first of building something 'real' (is that the right
word) before I look too much at the turn-key open I can see docker and all
the benefits of it brings.

Let me spin up the box with Debain first and fumble my way though with lots
of questions about installing HPT etc. then I'll play with the docker image
on the Pi. I also want to move Agency to Linux and may work on that first
before I tackle fsxNet NET 1 HUB and Fido etc. but the goal is to move so we
can start to do some stuff differently.
