Review of Salix OS 13.37 (New Distribution)

Taking a long look at Salix OS 13.37

,----[ Quote ]
| From the beginning the Salix OS developers made clear that they had no 
| intention of competing with Ubuntu or Mandriva and they were not trying to 
| create a newcomer-friendly distribution that would be easy for Windows or 
| MacOS users. Rather, they described the target audience as "lazy Slackers." 
| I've always understood that to mean Linux users who want the reliability, 
| stability and performance that Slackware consistently delivers but who also 
| want modern conveniences and features like automated dependency resolution, 
| automated notification when patches are available and a first class set of 
| tools to administer their systems. If those are truly the goals then Salix OS 
| meets them admirably.
