Slackware, Slax My husband hooked me up on Slackware almost three months ago (he used to run Slackware in the '90s). While I use a large range of OSes on a daily basis, when I am under Linux I now prefer to use Slackware. This is my mini-article with thoughts on Slackware 9.1 after using it for three months on and off. Ten screenshots are included.

I'm a FreeBSD user by day (work) and a Slackware user by night and I have to agree with a number of points raised in this article. Slackware isn't particularly glamorous (unless you get Dropline GNOME of course!) but it doesn't suffer from any real problems either. I don't understand why the whole world doesn't use BSD init scripts. They are SOO easy to use. I have customised the bajeesus out of mine.

On one final note: It's nice to see another proud GNOME user ;)
