To paraphrase one of the best "Star Trek: The Next Generation" episodes, "Best of Both Worlds", both Arch Linux and Slackware represent the best of all the OS worlds: the power of traditional Unix, the elegance of BSD and the ease of mind of Mac OS X. This is an article outlining the differences between --what I believe-- are the two best Linux distros around today. Mind you though, "best" doesn't always mean "easy".

The author should look into GoboLinux [http://www.gobolinux.org/] They have rethought the Linux filesystem and made package management a breeze. The distro can be thought of a system wide stow.
