Finished with Slackware for now

Well, I've finished my Slackware 9.0 experiment.
It's a really fine distro. I rank it number 2, right after gentoo.
The principal missing ingredient is a complete selection of packages in
Slack format, although it's much more complete than a couple of years
ago. There are several sources of packages now. I just didn't want to
play the game of looking for packages and using checkinstall to build my
own packages. Also, the lack of a dependancy mechanism in the Slack
package structure is a major flaw, from my standpoint.
So, I'm back on home base now.
