My friend recently installed Red Hat 7.2, and when I told him I had Slackware, he said I was probably the only person that used it and the only distros people use a lot are Red Hat and Mandrake. This got me thinking: What does everyone else use?

Slack is a great distro. U will eventually get to a point tho where u realize the package management is terrible. Then u will migrate to Gentoo. :)

Yeah, I'll agree with that. I really learned how to use Linux with Slackware for about 2 years until I migrated to Debian.

RH7.2 on the main box and Debian on my other one. FWIW, Debian Woody is the bomb so far!

It is very common for human beings to assume that what applies to them is what applies to the majority of people out there. It makes them feel more popular.

:cool: Slackware :cool:
