It wasn't that long ago (a few months?) that Slackware released 3.6 (2.0.35) ... isn't it two short for a new release? If it's about getting a distro with the latest kernel release, then it may be a matter of just downloading it from kernel.org and compiling it ... what am I missing anything here? Else, taking time for a distribution to solidly be built around a new kernel version is the other choice. *(actually, I'm asking here, not stating anything at all)* > Sure, for the "latest and greatest" jockies, Slackware will beat Debian. > For people who live in the real world and use their machines as more than > power toys and status symbols, I don't think so. Sorry to disagree here, but that sounds more like an argument for windoze vs debian (or any other linux), rather than debian vs slackware.
