Sure. Next, take a true random poll of how many people use RH, vs how
many people use Slack. Seriously: Google doesn't give you any sort of
statistically valid way to determine whether Slack or RH is harder to
use. Hell, maybe more experienced users are using Slack to begin with,
because new folks just give up on it.

Slack's packaging works OK, assuming you're using one to five computer.
That's what Rob seemed to be pointing out - it doesn't scale, at all.
Installpkg doesn't even have dependency checking, which, in 2005, is
pretty pathetic.

I have no problems using Slackware - because I've been using Linux for
many years. I've used it for projects at work when I thought it was the
best tool for the job (the only semi-modern distro using kernel 2.4).
But that doesn't mean that I think it's a particularly good distro.
