Slackware, Slax "VectorLinux has been one of my favorite projects since my first test of the distribution almost 18 months ago. I like VectorLinux because its roots are firmly planted in the stability and simplicity of Slackware, yet it comes with an extensive software base and lots of out-of-the-box great looks; in other words, a rock solid foundation with eye candy and useful functionality. While standard VectorLinux comes with the Xfce desktop environment and a variety of general-purpose applications, VectorLinux 5.8 SOHO offers the KDE desktop and a host of applications for small and home office users."

Vector Linux has always been a good distro to this chronically long-term Linux newbie. Along with Sabayon and Yoper it is one of the great temptations to go back to Windows-less x86 from PPC OS X.

If I imagine the combined talents of the devs behind these three names - boy, you'd have both Joe User and Power User lapping up such a distro.

OK, it's early in the morning and I am being a bit hormonally-manic in my enthusiasm but a boy can still dream while waking, can't he...?

(and no disrespect to the individual teams behind the above - as far as I can see and tell they are each achieving a heck of a lot in their own right).
