Rebuilding my Developer Platform - For the Last Time!

I have finished enough of a ground-up rebuild of a developer machine to take stock.

The rebuild process went something like this:

Step 1 - Start long running installation

Step 2 - Wait for installation to complete

	Testing John Conway's [Game of Life](https://playgameoflife.com/)

	The Game of Life, also known simply as Life, is a cellular automaton devised by the British mathematician John Horton Conway in 1970. It is a zero-player game, meaning that its evolution is determined by its initial state, requiring no further input. One interacts with the Game of Life by creating an initial configuration and observing how it evolves.
	It is Turing complete and can simulate a universal constructor or any other Turing machine.
