Well I actually I prefer Debian to both :) But if it was a choice between
Red Hat and Slackware, I'd take Red Hat every time, it's far more advanced.
Has a good packaging system, easy to upgrade. It's packages are up to date.
It's configurations aren't broken. Basically in my opinion Slackware is dead,
should do the linux community a favour and die out or collaborate with one
of the other distributions.
