| SimplyMEPIS typically tracks Debian Stable. While the
| current release, SimplyMEPIS 7.0, is based on Debian Etch
| (the current Debian Stable release), SimplyMEPIS 8.0 is
| based on the current Testing, but soon to be Stable,
| release known as Debian Lenny.
|
| AntiX typically tracks the Debian Testing release. Since
| Lenny is currently in Testing, SimplyMEPIS and AntiX are
| very similar and they are extremely stable.

| The only other potential drawback I can think of is for
| people who want everything right there, including non-free
| software. The sidux team strongly adheres to the Debian
| project principles found in the Debian Free Social
| Guidelines (DFSG), so they do not include proprietary
| firmware, drivers, add-ons, or plug-ins that may be useful,
| but are not "free" in the sense of freely available
| software source code. The sidux project does, however,
| provide outstanding documentation on how you can obtain
| software to tailor your system as needed. If you are not
| one who is willing to modify your system, then sidux is not
| for you, but if you are willing to customize your system,
| then sidux is a perfect choice!
