Slackware: old warhorse is going strong

,----[ Quote ]
| The last time I looked at Slackware was nearly seven years ago; version 7.1 
| was thrown my way by a magazine and I was asked for a review. My usage of the 
| distribution had ended early in 2000 when I moved to Debian after using 
| Slackware 4.0 and then 7.0 for about a year.

| I guess Slackware will have its band of loyal users; it has some good points 
| and a certain kind of people like their Linux the way Volkerding has designed 
| the distribution. Had the upgrade process been less cumbersome, who knows, I 
| might still be using it.

| Ubuntu is very user-friendly but not right for everyone. Oddly, both casual 
| and advanced users will find this operating system wonderful, while 
| day-to-day users may rail against Ubuntu's incompatibility with certain 
| popular software applications. Still, this is a great leap forward for Linux 
| with the mass audience...
