Apropos tych wszystkich swietych wojen miedzy dystrybucjami. Kris -- Krzysztof G. Baranowski - Prezes Klubu Nieszkodliwych Manjaków "Smith & Wesson - The original point and click interface..." http://www.knm.org.pl/ <prezes@manjak.knm.org.pl> > Does free software have "brand loyalty"? Does RedHat keep existing customers > because they are RedHat loyal or because it's a technically superior product? I would think so. This is a question of the learning curve: once you understand how Slackware works, you keep it because, when updating, you still know where all the things are located. Only when Slackware is outdated beyond hope, you look around for other distributions. So once you've settled with RedHat, you keep it for the same reason.
