Biju,

  The appeal to me is that it's far back from the bleeding edge and it's
very stable. As we don't make our living _from_ computers, but from _using_
them, I like the stability for production systems. I could not care less
about upgrading for every little thing.

  So, I'll learn how to cope with Slackware's quirks. After all, I did so
with Red Hat, too. :-)

Thanks,

Rich
