Not so you'd notice. I gave up on Slackware
right after v4.0 came
out. Tried SuSE, Turbo, and RH6.2, settled finally on Debian unstable.
I do like RedHat 7.x, for the most part. It has some really ugly
warts, but they're easily fixed, if you know they exist. But
Debian's apt-get just rules.
Seems to me that RC1 of the latest Slackware release (8.1?) was announced
last week. The last couple systems I setup I used SuSE, really wish I
still had time to just roll my own. Every Linux distro now seems to be
horribly bloated, and have security problems (OK, they're getting "better"
with the security problems).
