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 strongly agree with your review of Slackware 9. I have used over 20 linux distrobutions and I keep coming back to Slackware. I love the speed and stability. I do believe that Slackware is not suitable for the beginning linux user. It takes a little configuration to get some hardware to work (WiFi, Sound, etc..). I do recommend SuSE linux to the beginners. Slackware RULES!
