Revised Slackware keeps it simple
,----[ Quote ]
| For existing users, this point release brings lots of great updates to your
| favorite apps and the kernel. If you haven't upgraded yet, the slackpkg tool
| can assist you with that and help keep you updated.
|
| For new users, Slackware isn't as difficult as you might have heard, and
| there's no better time than now to try it. It offers similar hardware support
| and amenities as many other distributions. You may have to learn to do a few
| things from the command line from time to time, but you're liable to discover
| things can be much simpler that way.
|
| Slackware isn't for everyone. But in a landscape where distro and application
| developers are increasingly catering to new Windows converts, it's nice to
| have one who's sticking to his original goals. Slackware is still keeping it
| simple for Linux users who like using Linux.

| Slackware provides security updates all the way back to version 8.1 along
| with 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 11.0 and 12.0, so if there is a reason

| distro's creator, Patrick Volkerding and his team.

Slackware: There's something totally sane about it
,----[ Quote ]
| Did I mention that configuring CUPS printing for my difficult-to-dial-in
| networked printer was easier in Slackware than in anything else I've tried?
