Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y 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".

I love the no-patching and default-location policy of slack. That's why it is easy to install programs from source on slack. But when I have some tima available I will try Arch, just for the fun of it.
