RedHat distribution quality is just higher than Slackware,
RedHat is much faster on posting bugfixes: if a serious bug
is found, a fix is normally available in several hours. RedHat
is also has nice graphical Control Panel for configuring users,
groups, shells, passwords, nfs, fstab, printers, time and so on.
