I'm using a Pro Micro clone, based on a 16u4 with USB on chip. I've been trying to read up on this, but depending on what you meant, most sources aren't very forthcoming on the "how" as much as the "how to".
I understand the claim from both sides that Windows users are dumb, but in 99% of situations, I don't need or want the control and complexity of UNIX/Linux based systems. I do have a Banana Pi based file server I built, but Windows is far more user friendly in day to day use.
I also understand the claim that most Arduino users would make with regard to being "dumb" - the platform makes firmware coding almost obnoxiously easy, which is both good and bad. I've written Atmel ASM. In a lot of ways I prefer it, but it's still intimidating to me. And the cost of entry is either steep or a very steep learning curve to build your own programmer. And you have to learn instruction set differences based on hardware capabilities, etc. Just my $0.02. Anyway.
