I used to use suse pro back when it was 9.2. Since it was my first ever distro I've always had a soft spot for suse. However, I tried the openSuse a few months ago, just before the xmas holidays, and didnt like it at all. And it didnt like my wireles either! <br>
<br>I gave Arch a bash over the christmas holidays cause I had nothing better to do. It worked fine for me and was fairly simple-ish to get up and running. (easier than LFS which I tried during exam time. But not as easy as the some of the big main distros out there)<br>
<br>System req's are low and the package management system is pretty easy to use. <br><br>Only problem I had with it was wireless. (am begining to think nothing likes my wireless) However, one lan cable later and it was solved! :-p<br>

Why Slack was good in 1995 but not now? I would love to hear some<br>
arguments. Are there any or is it just a myth?<br>
