Slackware 12.1 RC2Slackware 12.1 RC2Posted Apr 26, 2008 1:36 UTC (Sat) by pr1268 (subscriber, #24648)In reply to: Slackware 12.1 RC2 by jmmc Parent article: Slackware 12.1 RC2
I'd take exception to the 'slow death' comment. I was hoping somebody might. And I'm the OP! I personally enjoy using Slackware for the same reasons you do. Especially the "Vanilla" reason. Slackware pretty much lets me manage my computers the way I want. I have experienced a number of other distros, and once I tried Slackware1 there was no turning back. I'm glad others don't necessarily see Slackware as "dying a slow death", and I thank the above posters for presenting a different perspective of Slackware's status. 1 Ironically, the friend who turned me on to Slackware jumped over to Gentoo several months later. Of course, Gentoo has even more of the do-it-yourself philosophy than Slackware, and it was just becoming big around then.
