Call me, in some ways old-school, but I still consider Slackware to be the greatest Linux distribution, even though it wasn't the firsst one I used. To me, SuSe still seems like a slackware clone packaged with way more shit than I could ever care about, Debian seems unorganized, and RedHat and the crew seem to be an over commercial attempt to make Linux more Windows-like without a clear conception of what it is that makes Windows easier to use.
Of course, most will disagree with me, and I'm not here to start holy wars, just to praise a great distribution. In my view, the spin-off is good news. I fear that the larger the company Slackware is associated with, the more pressure they would feel to change (i.e. become more like RedHat) Their continued independance reassures me that they will stay true to form.
