Umm... I would like to correct the author's delusion: Slackware does *not* include LAME. I didn't think I remembered it being included, and after looking through my copy of Slack 11, there is indeed no mention of it. I have no idea where Mr. Brockmeier got this impression.

Sigh. My bad, it was included with Dropline GNOME, which I also installed. Thanks for pointing out the error, though you could be a bit less insulting.

Sorry, it was meant in a jovial tone, not as an insult. We all make mistakes, and it was meant as just a bit of joking hyperbole...
