At the moment, none. I use BW64 on my desktop.
HOWEVER, I have ordered Slackware 13 32-bit to use on my Samsung NC10 netbook.

After being on LinuxQuestions for a couple of months and noticing that A LOT of users have Slackware installed, I wanted to find out why.
Installed Slackware 13.0 32 bit yesterday on a laptop Compaq nx7010. Works great, getting to know it bit by bit, but already loving it a lot.
Kind regards,
Eric

Slackware -current 32 bit & Slackware 13-64 bit pure atm. Not sure I'll keep it that way.
Probably let my -current continue along its path and replace the 64 with regular 32bit...we'll see.

I've got 2 machines running 64bit multilib and 2 running 32 bit.
By the way, I'm seriously impressed with Slackware64. The machines running it are noticeably snappier than they were with 12.2.

Slack 64 multilib with 2 virtual machines: one 32bit and one 64bit for package creation mostly. (another one may be on the road soon for some safe playground ;-) )
