I'd like to buy Slackware because I enjoy it so much. Unfortunately I don't really know where to go for this. I'm not going to go through some shady black market deal to buy this and I want to know that my hard earned dollar contributes to the right place and such. When I'm getting this amazing software for free I feel kind of guilty. I'd like to buy Slack but where? Sure, I could get it from some guy named Joe running an illegal pirating business out of his house but I need something reliable and at the same time I need to know that I'm contributing to something that will do some good.


I am very hesitant to give out my credit card number to anyone, although I do trust Amazon.com, but they only sell SuSE and Mandrake I think. At the same time I'm sure I'm not going to be able to walk into Best Buy and ask them for a copy, the net is my only option I'm sure and again I'm not going to give me card number to "Joe". Any helpful advice would be great. Thanks.

Would you being willing to give the official slackware site you card info? I pretty sure patrick isn't going to rip you off?

Ehh... still a bit nervous but this site looks pretty cool.


Now we're talking! Slack T-Shirts and Software, I might buy from this place.. Thanks for the link.

Several years ago I bought a copy of Slackware at Circuit City of all places.
