I am new to Salix, and am slowly learning about the command line etc. I have tried a lot of distros (really - a lot!) and I have found Salix to be the best. I really like the way Slackware distros work and I used Vector for a while. Anyway, I am glad to be here.
Thanks!

Welcome and, if I interpret your name correctly, it might be a good idea to get a picture of your dog, and use it for your Avatar here ;->

Welcome retriever!!
Slackware Distros are solid.
Personally, I like Salix the as the best of the Slackware spinoffs.
Great installer, current with Slack 14 & dedicated developers.
Enjoy!

Hi Retriever,
I am in the same boat as you, tried many variants of Linux, finding Slackware to be the best of the bunch. One thing I didn't like about Slackware was the name and the logo. It doesn't really click with me. But I love Salix and the nice Bonsai tree logo
Arch is second on my list, although I can't really say it is a 'close' second. I just hate the rolling release stuff. Too frequent updates
Anyway, welcome to Salix :tup:

Hello and welcome aboard retriever.
I have used Salix continuosly in the last couple of years and never thought to change to anything else (altough I still distro hop in my VM from time to time).
Enjoy your Salix experience!

Hi, retriever,
