Oh, yeah I guess there was slamd64. Nevermind.

Slackware was the first Linux distribution I tried, and I really liked it; lack of a 64-bit version was one of the main things that had kept me away from it over the last few years. I might start installing Slackware on my machines again!

Guess I'll have it give it a try.

P.S. How close is -current to 13?
