I've been trying to decide between Slackware and Debian for Linux.  I have
Slackware 7.1, the latest of a subscription with Walnut Creek CDROM, which
subscription apparently ended silently after Walnut Creek CDROM was taken over
by BSDI and more recently by Wind River.  When I try to mount the internal SCSI
CD-ROM, the system hangs every time.  I don't know whether the fault is with
Slackware or with the Linux kernel generic NCR5380 SCSI support.  With you, it
could possibly be a faulty TCP/IP setup program.

I've never had MS-Windows on my computer.  Closest thing I had to MS-Windows was
OS/2 with Win-OS/2 support, so I could run some Windows programs.  After
downloading Win32s, I was even able to run Freecell, and 50WAYS.EXE found on
Iomega Zip250 disks.  OS/2 installation was obliterated by hard drive crash last
April, I don't want to go through the buggy install again.
