A few months ago I was a Slackware Junkie. I loved it, and laughed at those who used 'more automatic' distributions (ok, I didn't actually laugh). Then Arch Linux 0.5 came out and I was very intrigued by it. I was getting tired of having to compile updated packages myself.

Just a small suggestion - could you add a screenshot showing Arch's font rendering? It seems a bit dodgy that the default Freetype is compiled with bytecode, and i'd just be intrested in seeing how that compares to other distro's by default (Redhat's fonts are great till you read them for more than a couple mins, can't stand the AA settings they use).
Great review though, covered all the important points - think I may just have to run this alongside my slack setup for a little bit.
