Slackware 12.1
,----[ Quote ]
| All in all, Slackware is actually a good distro, and its customisation
| options are excellent at every stage. Its package management system, while a
| little difficult to get to grips with, is probably only as difficult as APT,
| and as soon as you get X started most of the file editing stuff does not
| matter so much. Against a distro like Ubuntu, Slackware is slower, less easy
| to use, less up to date and less well supported, but its strongest aspect it
| is customisation abilities, which would appeal if you wanted to run a server
| or know what you are doing.

| As expected all devices are detected. Slackware is fast and responsive. Boots

| forgotten how to type "startx".

Review: Slackware 12.2
,----[ Quote ]
| So what is my ultimate verdict for Slackware? On the one hand, stories of
| how hard it is to install Slackware are greatly exagerated. They may have
| been true in the past, but nowadays, it’s pretty darned easy to install.

The Slackware 12.2 interview
,----[ Quote ]
| Covering a Linux distribution is hard work as there are so
| many areas to look at but hopefully I’ve given you a taste
| of what Slackware can do. The strength of Slackware lies in
| it’s reliable and stable base, it’s configurable method of
| setup, and it’s adherence to the principle of KISS ( keep
| it simple, stupid ). Patrick’s ongoing commitment to the
| distro in the face of personal difficulties shows the
| quality of people behind this oft-overlooked distro. Its
| continued use as a starting point for many other
| distro’s/LiveCDs and the fact that it’s the oldest usable
| Linux on the market shows its inherent importance in the
| grander scheme of things.
