Definitely Slack.
has anyone else tried evil entity.... i found it to be an extremely entertaining distro....
I have that as well. Of course, its "goth" theme didn't do a thing for me, so I Changed It. :D. Added Enlightenment to Slack with the same theme, so that you can't tell 'em apart from looking at them.

Me, on test machines I have set up at school. Many of the computers open for such testing are old p2's with 128MB RAM. Ubuntu runs fine on them (much better on 192+, though, good for whenever I find a stick around).
It's terrific.

You're comparing apt-get to RPM?!? You don't even know what you're doing. That's like comparing an apple to a toaster. A proper comparison would be apt-get to yum or apt-get to apt for RPM.
apt-get gets software, RPM installs software. RPM has nothing to do with getting the software or resolving its dependencies, that's the job of yum or apt for RPM.
You aren't even comparing the proper apps, which proves you dont know what you're talking about.

Slackware is pretty cool, its quick to install, but then Fedora Core 3 installed in just over 15 minutes onto my laptop over the network.
I run Fedora Core 3 on my laptop, Slackware Linux on my little monitoring box in the corner.
On my main server I run Trustix Secure Linux, and as far as im concerned it kicks royal arse. I was going to run OpenBSD but it kept on crashing over and over, and the mailinglist decided it was my hardware, which has run for 4 or 5 years with Linux, stable.
I might try OpenBSD still on another machine, it would be handy to learn.
FreeBSD is pretty uber as well.
I need to try debain one day.
