Slak is great

it doesnt insulate you from the system

that is what I like about it

it is very free and easy to deal with I cant explain it exactly one of 
the reasons I left WINXX behind was the way it "thought" I find alot of 
distros trying to do the same thing for me.
insulate me form the system make is "easier"

anyhow slak is a wonder love it..

OpenBSD for firewalls :)
