Subject: [EXTERNAL] [ale] Good Linux Distro for laptop or desktop?<br>
<br>
All,<br>
<br>
What would be a good Distro with long term support for both my<br>
new laptop and new desktop?<br>
<br>
I usually run Slackware on my laptops. I need WiFi support for<br>
the laptop, and ability to run Kaffeine to watch movie DVDs on<br>
both. I like that Slackware has inetd and not that new @$%@.<br>
<br>
Don't care for Debian or Mint.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Bob<br>
