Is DSL mandrake based?......could've fooled me!;) I love Slackware for it's robustness and clarity but: for day2day desktop stuff my family likes to do....MANDRAKE IS UNBEATABLE......for crying out loud:) Mandrake (or driva) is the one and only MsWindows_killer out there (not counting macOSX) and it has been for quite a number of years! -- Good luck, HarM
