[Techtalk] Considering an OS change

[Meredydd Luff]

I'm being terribly hypocritical of course, as a long-time Slacker who's never 
quite got around to wiping the machine and starting over, but I think I'd 
have to recommend Debian. If you can hack Slackware (in both senses :-P), you 
won't have any trouble with it, and apt-get is the mother of all package 
management tools.
