Hi,
Downloaded the dvd via torrent at work and installed it that day. My conclusion: slackware 12.2 is a truly great release and combined with the work of slackbuilds.org it is a truly impressive distro.

You think that's air you're breathing now?
I never really understood the point of the DVD except for the fact that it saves someone from burning 6 CD's but then again why would a person want to install every single distribution set? I understand perhaps wanting increased localized support but otherwise most of the software provided is never used. Isn't that defeating the purpose of installing Slackware in the first place and the k.i.s.s. philosophy?
I've never tried Slackware.
Downloading the DVD now; I might as well as my ISP has free downloads to its customers for anything on its mirror.
I tend to think I may find Slack a little more difficult than Arch.
Thanks for the positive input
I'll install it on my test machine & see what I think.
I'm sure I'll be back to you...
